This is really not such a bad route if it weren't for the first 20 feet. The start is difficult, grainy and wide with little enjoyment to be had. After leading up to the first bolt I pulled the rope through the pro so that my partner could climb up the left side of the pedestal which was much better. Anyhow, the bolted section is amazing! You'll need to move left and nearly campus up liebacked edges and dynos!! Very cool! The finishing roof underclings are good as well with adequte pro and be sure to extend those runners to avoid drag. Give this one a try if you're feeling adventurous.

The Loo Sanction (aka Mt. Witness)

Wise Crack

Straight Flush

Strawberry Jam

Diagonal Chimney

A thin start leads to a ledge (the outer edge of the chimney) where a bridge/stem across to a nice hand crack continues to the summit. Rap anchors located on the opposite side of the rock atop the Northwest Chimney route.

This is a nice route with good gear that's only minutes from the campground. Take care with your technique and try not to leave any "jam" behind.

This route barely gets a star.  The majority of the route is OK, even if a little grainy, but the non-crux top is just kinda bad- quite grainy (loose) and it's a hollow flake with dubious pro off of the ledge up there- the consequences would be unpleasant if you fell by no more mistake than trusting bad rock- which you kinda have to do.

On the East Face of Outhouse rock, find a rounded pillar/buttress on the right hand end.This route climbs the steep right-facing dihedral formed by the union of this buttress and the wall. It is a little dirtier than some other routes and grainy up top.  Save for the top, the route is OK.

A decent route worthy of one star. At least there is no traffic on it.

On the East Face of Outhouse rock, find a rounded pillar/buttress on the right hand end. Straight Flush climbs the shallow corner on it's left side, about 2M left of Wise Crack. It is a little dirtier than some other area routes but mostly solid rock.

A long 4th class chimney leads up to crux finger and hand jamming.
