Hand Lotion

FA Alan Bartlett, Don Reid, 1/1998.

Description

Right-slanting crack leads up to a slopey ledge, then up a steep crack that splits a dark brown face.  Rated 5.8 in Bartlett's Central JT book, but felt deserving of the extra plus (or two).  Walk off via easy scramble down and to climber's left to brush past trees, then cut back to the top of the starting pit.

Location

This and Groover McTuber are located on the south-facing backside of No Falls Wall, on its inside left end.  Requires scrambling past some slopey ledges and tunneling into a cave.  This is the right side one of the two adjacent routes.  Both start on a boulder ledge inside a pit, and are located left of a prominent bulbous roof at the center of this south face.  That bulbous roof is visible from the trail.

Protection

Pro to 3", gear anchor.
