Access Issue: 1. RAIN & WET ROCK 2. DANGER OF EROSION
Details
1. Texas Canyon is conglomerate that is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp, then do not climb.
2. The south end of the First Corridor is in danger of collapsing at the base of Sophie’s Choice. A dam of rocks and soil has been built to divert water away from the eroding soil underneath these huge boulders. Please help keep this system in place until a more permanent solution is implemented.

Description
Egg-nostic climbs to the summit of The Egg via the right side of the scoop and overhang, above the ledge between the Egg Cup Buttress and the top of The Egg. From the anchor for Boneyard & Texas Chainsaw, mantle onto the lower portion of the scoop and climb the slab to the 1st bolt. Continue either straight up on pockets and features to the lip of the overhang, or move right from the bolt on small pockets, pull the overhang to better, deep pockets and knobs above the lip. Continue up the knobby upper face to the anchor, below the summit.
