Description Suggest change

Start below a scooped face with three bolts. The scooped face is between Strawberry Jam and Straight Flush. There are two possible starts - a grainy, wide crack or via the left side of a pedestal.  The bolted section above is the crux. You'll need to move left and nearly campus up ledges and dynos! The finishing roof underclings are good as well with adequate pro and be sure to extend those runners to avoid drag. 

The Loo Sanction was the next book written by the author Trevanian after writing The Eiger Sanction. He also wrote Shibumi, which is a route on the White Cliffs of Dover. In Great Britain, a bathroom/rest room is sometimes referred to as a "loo," hence the tie in with Outhouse Rock.

Protection Suggest change

A standard rack up to #3 Camalot for the top and bottom of the route and there are three well placed bolts in the middle. There are rap anchors down the west face to descend and not much at the top to belay from.

Location Suggest change

 In the middle of the east face of Outhouse Rock between Strawberry Jam and Straight Flush is a route on a scooped face with three bolts.
