Pumping Ego
Description
Climb a ways up to the first bolt (1/2"), do the crux and then wander upwards on steep slab past three more bolts to the top.
Gear belay and scramble/down-climb off to the climber's right (fastest being along the margin of the wall just right of this climb).
A worthwhile and fun route worth doing while in the area which is not nearly as greasy as it's neighbor to the left.
In a very rare and commendable move Alan replaced the bolts on this and all the other routes he put up in Joshua Tree; if more people took the time and effort to replace the old bolts on their routes places like Josh would be even nicer and certainly much safer - thanks a ton Alan!
