Access Issue: Bridges Out! IMPORTANT LADWP NEGOTIATIONS!!
Details
Due to liability concerns, bridges are being removed in the Owens River Gorge at the request of LADWP. The Bishop Area Climbers Coalition and the Access Fund are currently in negotiations with LADWP to get this issue resolved. In the meantime, please continue to be good land stewards by respecting these bridge closures and finding alternate crossing points until this issue is resolved.
1) Never park or camp overnight at the access points.
2) Always park off the pavement, taking great care to avoid blocking the gates.
3) Clean up after your dogs. (Local climbers are finding abandoned doggie poop bags.)
4) Pack out all trash and TP, including picking up after others.
5) Use the outhouses if at all possible.

Description
This long pitch is actually an extension of an older route, Destination Oblivion, which stopped at the first anchors. Climb the slippery slab past 5 bolts and an anchor and then head out the clean streak of overhanging rock. Follow the bolts closely since the thin strip of good rock is surrounded by extreme choss. The theme of the overhanging section is grab a bad hold reach to a huge jug, repeat. Fun and long.
