Access Issue: RAIN & WET ROCK
Details
Stoney Point sandstone is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many gyms in the area if you need a fix!
Description
Shade in the morning and sunny in the afternoon. This wall has some great exposure looking down at Boulder 1 and the road. Home to one of Stoney Point's best top rope face climbs.
Getting There
Walk past B1 boulder towards the Pile Ups boulders. In between these two formations, cut up the hill slightly right of were you would head up for the Jesus Wall. Easy scrambling lead to the base of the wall.
To get to the top to set up the TR, head further towards the Pile Ups and ascend the hill behind them. Once up fairly high, but below the top (at the bottom of Spencer's), head left across a ledge and well worn grass path. There are three glue-in bolts for the anchor, hang the master point over the edge a few feet to avoid friction.
The last person will have to finish their climb then break down the anchor and head down. The remaining people can scramble back down the gully on the left (facing out).
