Access Issue: Bridges Out! IMPORTANT LADWP NEGOTIATIONS!!
Details
Due to liability concerns, bridges are being removed in the Owens River Gorge at the request of LADWP. The Bishop Area Climbers Coalition and the Access Fund are currently in negotiations with LADWP to get this issue resolved. In the meantime, please continue to be good land stewards by respecting these bridge closures and finding alternate crossing points until this issue is resolved.
1) Never park or camp overnight at the access points.
2) Always park off the pavement, taking great care to avoid blocking the gates.
3) Clean up after your dogs. (Local climbers are finding abandoned doggie poop bags.)
4) Pack out all trash and TP, including picking up after others.
5) Use the outhouses if at all possible.

Description
Visually stunning ramp with fun climbing. Face to ramp. Crux is around the 11th bolt on P2. Some crack moves. To avoid the ugly gully to the left of the line, use the 3 chain draws to descend back to the top of P1. A 70 m rope will allow you to lower your second to the ground from the top of P1 with the rope running thru the anchors of p2. Remember to pull the rope so that the free leg comes down thru the fixed draws or it will fall into the gully. This route gets great sun at the end of the day in Winter.
