Back Hand of God – 5.12a

Skaha > Foreplay

18m / 59ft, 9 bolts

Description:

*TOP 100* The streaked wall has excellent climbing, some of the best at the grade in Skaha. A tricky start leads to a marginal rest on a slopey rail before the crimpy business at the top. This pitch seeps in the winter. It may be gritty in the early spring, but cleans up quickly. Back Hand of God is an award-winning stout made by Crannog Ales and left Fields in Sorrento, BC. 9 bolts (18m) FA: Rob Birtles, 2014.

A very fun route! The second clip can be very tricky/risky. It seems everyone stick clips.

Cool moves. Some hard crimps up top, but you can "rest" briefly on the sloper rail before the heartbreaker finish. Personally, I prefer the typo "Back Hand of God" name.
