Private Property issues MORE INFO >>> The West Bank / Wild West / Secret Crag has been problematic for years due to access concerns. There have been negative encounters with gun-toting landowners who have alleged that the entire mountain is on private property. Typical approaches involve brief crossing of railroad property which appears to be prohibited. Exact demarcation of property boundaries are not always clear. When in doubt, be discrete or polite. Do not park your vehicle near the railroad tracks near Plainview. It is a well-known irritant to Plainview residents. This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

This is a fun route with a section of the greatest crimps I've ever been on!! Pull over a low bulge and get past the business using a few left hand pulls on the sharp arete. An incredible sequence follows, up perfect, crisp edges on an immaculate shield leading to easier climbing and the anchors.

Protection 

6-7 bolts plus anchors.
