ios how to read a crash log


I've never had to read a crash log before so I'm admittedly a n00b in these waters.

I can tell there was an EXC_BAD_ACCESS. How can I tell which object was released before it was supposed to be?

*note this happens after waking the device while the app is active. It doesn't always happen, but often enough.

** EDIT **
