Holy cow, that's a trek. I don't think I've ever seen a TR from that forsaken sliver of the park. A lot of the limestone/dolomite outcrops and surfaces are so old and so stable that the primary erosion is from rain dissolving the calcite. Rainwater has a typical pH of 5-5.5, so is acidic and etches the rock surfaces. Really chews up the hands, as you've seen!
