But Fear Itself

The Right Hand of Light

Nothing to Fear

Begin on a slim ledge/ramp just right of

Mauna Kea

and climb the face (interspersed with horizontal seams) up to the last bolt on Mauna Kea.

This is a fun route that starts easy and gets progressively harder.  5.7 face moves lead to 5.8 and 5.9 as the route steepens.  Various thin cracks are present higher up.  There are only a few moves of 10a near the top.  The crux is somewhat height-dependent and a fun puzzle.

To descend, traverse climber's right to the two-bolt anchor at the top of The Right Hand of Light and rap.

5 bolt face climb on West Face up nicely featured varnish.

Climb the crack system immediately to the right of

Hot Flashes

.

A nice steep face climb on the north face of Lava Dome.  Really fun face climbing past 2 good bolts leads to easier face climbing past a seam up high.  Good but short.

Begin in the middle of the West Face. Steep face climb past 3 bolts on excellent, varnished rock.

This is a cool route. It's steep and intimidating for the 5.8 leader, but once you're on it, nice footholds appear to the left of the crack.Pulling thru the steep crux, two-thirds up, is exciting and well protected with a large cam in the crack. The upper third, which looks like a hike from below, is interesting, too. Walk off the back.

This is a challenging route that will reward careful inspection of all resources available!  The crux comes at the beginning and creative use of counter pressure and body position will be helpful.  Higher up the route is easier, but only by a letter grade or so.

This is the crack to the left of "But Fear It's Self".

It's a pretty good, steep 5.6. A bit rotten at the start, but the rock improves after a few moves.
