Mountain lion warning!
In April 2024, climbers had an encounter with a mountain lion. As they rounded the corner of the cliff below Corruption, talking at a normal volume, a huge mountain lion jumped out of the cave below Catching the Quarry Direct. The little cave below Catching the Quarry Direct may be a favorite hangout of the cat, being about 20 degrees cooler in there. A little concerning as well, as one climber scouted this area solo last week and didn’t see obvious signs of big cat. All in all be cautious, maybe be loud when walking up and bring some friends with you if you access the crag in the near future.
