Access Issue: Temporary Notice on aerial herbicide treatment & Bad Bolt Submission Form
Details
PSA for those thinking about a trip. The gates are still closed and the sign says enter at your own risk. "Aerial application by helicopter of the herbicide Rejuvra will target over 5,700 acres on a landscape that has been the focus of multiple years’ worth of treatment."

Description
A fun area with a couple of crack routes and potential for possibly one more. The rightmost route is Virgin's crack with left leaning hands to an exciting flake through a bulge. The Has Been was put up by Scarpelli when he was feelin a bit out of shape. This route follows a left leaning crack left of Virgin's and sports flaring hands and some wideness of course.
Getting There
To reach the Solar Collector follow the Turtle Rock trail for a little over a mile past Holy Saturday and Land of the Rising Moon. When Turtle Rock Tower comes into view on the right the small crag will be located about 100 yards off to your left. The routes Virgin's Crack- 5.9, and The Has Been -10b are found here.
