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

There are a few top rope routes from 5.9-5.11 on this wall. At the base is a cave which has Hot Tuna a V5 roof traverse.

Protection Details: (2) SS Wave Bolts added for protection at the top of Hot Tuna Buttress. Flying Fish has had no protection besides some hangerless rusty bolts. It can now be top roped safely. You can still backup your anchor with a very long piece of webbing (probably over 50 feet needed)
