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.

| I belayed Zac on the first ascent years ago, but was too scared to lead it myself. Just went back this weekend and we tried to top-rope it -- insanely hard, and bad gear. Rethinking this, it feels more like 5.12- x, with definite ground fall at cruxes at 25 feet and at 60 feet. Only gear is at 30 feet. Great lead! |
