Access Issue: The State Rec Area closes at dusk - most parking areas are self-paid
Details
Most of Auburn SRA is open from 7 am to sunset. Leave early enough to be off the trails before dusk. Most parking requires self registration fees in cash envelopes (or annual state park passes), and is enthusiastically enforced. Check the Auburn State Recreation Area website at parks.ca.gov/?page_id=502 for current information. Note that the park's policy is that technical roped climbing is only permitted in the Cave Valley/Quarry area - outside the fenced private quarry at the back. Unroped climbing - aka bouldering or DWS - is allowed everywhere with a safe landing.
Description
Named after a punk band my friend played in. A little of everything with this one. Some route finding, some power, some endurance needed. Somewhat powerful moves getting past the 2nd and 3rd bolts lead to a balancy high step move at the 4th. Technical climbing using bad feet with some slabby moves thrown is required as you move past a few more bolts. A cool move climbing past the 8th bolt and through the bulge leads to a good ledge. The rock type at the last bolt changes to yellow scaly limestone. Climb a single tricky layback move to the anchors.
