Do not drive into the Quarry. Not even if you see other climbers driving in. You will be ticketed $150 for trespassing. Climbing here is fine, just park on the street.
Steve moving through the crux of Power Play
Description
Located 10' right of Ground Zero (5.10d), a prominent right-facing corner system starting about 40 off the ground and about 15' left of Whammy (5.10a).
A bouldery sequence of underclings and highsteps is the crux of this route and once the underclings at the 2nd bolt are reached it's about 5.9+ to the anchors. Above the 2nd bolt the climb moves right then back left on positive flakes and edges and then continues higher to a chain anchor just right of the Ground Zero anchor.
Not as sustained as other routes here which could make it a good route for those breaking into the grade. There's an extension to this route called Double Whammy (5.11b) - 16 bolts to anchors.
yes it is a pity, but if it went straight up there would be a plethora of glue and chipped holds :), or it would be way harder which isn't such a bad thing!
Good news - this route has been extended and now continues straight above the 5th bolt passing three more bolts to an independent anchor just right of the Ground Zero anchor.
