Trillium

Trillium climbs up the central face of the Yellowjacket Boulder and tops out at the shelf at about two-thirds height. Start with your left hand on a sloping sidepull and your right hand on a sloping crimp. Make a dynamic move to a good pocket and follow crimps and pockets to a tricky move to the lip. Top out on the ledge.

The climb is so named because one of the pockets up top is filled with three perfect little stones. All three wiggle in the pocket, but can't be pulled out. It seems like there should be a lesson there.
