Access Issue: No overnight camping on PG&E property Details

Noticed several tents while walking into the emeralds climbing area this last weekend ( 5/20/17 ). PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric) has posted several signs at the gate and other areas that state camping is NOT allowed. Please respect this so that access does not become an issue! Thanks in advance, Colby W.

Description

Steep shady wall - 70 ft tall. Feature rock - nice concentration of routes .11-.12

Getting There

15 minute walk from Parking Area by Yuba River. Walk past gate down fire road. Cut right 150 years into trees once you reach big washed out river bed.
