A special thanks to all of the individual donors and local businesses, including Planet Granite, Sacramento Pipeworks, and Stoneage Climbing Holds for generously responding to the call for help. Opening day is Friday Sept. 27 and climbing is allowed every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday till Sundown! We ask that you please respect the current hours of operation and hope that the cliff will be open year round in the future. Stay tuned for updates at www.norcalcrags.org.
