Description
This climb starts from the little staging area at the base of Lookout jr. Climb a flake to a small ledge, then move left to a flake crack. From the top of the crack, easy friction past two bolts leads to a nice handcrack and a 2 bolt anchor.
Life Direct (5.9) climbs past a bolt from the small ledge near the start to gain a crack.
From the anchor one can continue on Snow on the Mountain or other climbs on the upper tiers of LO jr/Small Steps.
CAUTION: There is a risk of taking a pendulum swing while being lowered. To prevent such a swing, follow the natural fall line when lowering. Other ways to mitigate the possibility of a swing are to use directionals while being lowered or, if the belayer is secure, clip a long sling from your harness to the other line (that goes to the belayer).
