Access Issue: Details

Please continue to be good land stewards and mindful of LADWP.

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

A shady crag on the West side of the river characterized by a few good easy 10's. It is a few feet above the river so maneuvering around the base is a lot easier than at Silent Pillar. Another good place to beat the heat and the crowds.

Note: IMLT is about a minute upstream of Splashdown, an 11d which is probably the best pitch in the Sub Gorge.

Getting There

See Lewis' guide. He's not sandbagging when he says it takes 15 minutes of class two; in other words, not bad at all.
