Handy Boy

Description

The route holds the dubious honor of being Rifle's shortest route. What's more, the clipping jug at the second bolt is often wet and the route arbitrarily ends 25 feet up at a set of hard-to-clip anchors.

Nevertheless, for being such a pile, this route has some weired sort of scruffy charm. It is on the right edge of the Handy Boy cave and climbs through the chossy looking white and black stone onto the pockets and weird tufa features.

Stick clip the first bolt or get a good spot. Continuous, bouldery moves past the wet hole (often has a sock stuffed in it) get you to the "summit."

Protection

6 quickdraws and a stick clip for bolt one.
