Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Owens River Gorge : Upper Gorge : ... : Delicate Mechanism (5.10b) By: grizz When: Nov 4, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: I felt there were two distinct cruxes. The lower crux was definitely making my way under the roof at the beginning which I thought was harder than the upper crux. Great route.

Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Owens River Gorge : Upper Gorge : ... : Induced Labor (5.10d) By: Rick B When: Oct 29, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: One of my favorite gorge routes. Spicy off the deck, technical and thin the first 30 feet. Then wild overhung layback/ hands, finishing with jugs. Climbing moves, bottom to top. Also, a gorgeous setting by the creek in the shade.

Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Owens River Gorge : Upper Gorge : ... : O.R.G.asam (5.11a) By: J. Albers When: Oct 23, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: Guys, zee Fish is F'ing with you. There ARE trad climbs in the Gorge. John, if they bolted it, there is probably a reason. The east side of the Sierra's have a great local community with a wide range of ethical stances. The locals do a great job of balancing trad and runout bolt ethics with modern sport climbing. Best.

Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Owens River Gorge : Upper Gorge : ... : Pet Trackers (5.10a) By: Arthur Sullivan When: Sep 18, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: Shares anchors with P.D. Time. The anchors are wearing thin from people toproping so please use your own equipment. The start of this climb may feel tougher for those with less reach.

Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Owens River Gorge : Upper Gorge : ... : P.D. Time (5.7) By: Arthur Sullivan When: Sep 18, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: I posted this route as 5.7 because thats what it is listed as in the guidebook but I wouldn't recommend this route unless you're comfortable on 5.9. This was the first 5.7 I've ever climbed that had a bail beaner hanging off it.
