Access Issue: Road Closure - Caldor Fire and Dirt road winter closures
Details
While climbing is open, Wrights Lake Road is within the Caldor Fire closure: fs.usda.gov/eldorado/. Plan to approach from Hwy 50. In addition, Eldorado National Forest closes dirt roads during wet conditions between November and May. The main office number 530-622-5061 might help you get current conditions, which aren't always updated on the website. fs.usda.gov/detail/eldorado… When the road is closed, simply park on a pullout of Wrights Lake Road and walk the extra mile.
Description
5.8 crux off the ground. Follow shallow flaring groove to horizontal finger crack. Move left and pull onto ledge. Continue up 4th class terrain for 50 feet (joining North Ridge route) and belay at a blocky area below summit. Scramble to the summit via a low angle yet exposed arete (easy 5th class) to access rap anchors.
