Crack L of arête to the L of Trish Delight. Gain the slab and finish up TD.

22 Trish Delish

A varied route that takes a striking line. Begin at the hand crack just right of the arete. A hard start over a small roof leads to good crack climbing and a rest on the L arete level with the main roofline. Swing around R to regain the crack and follow it up the slab past a bush. Climb the ramp up L then straight up the wall just R of the arete.

Quoted from Nick Neagles guide.
