Access Issue: Road closure Oct 1, 2024 Details

PG&E will be closing access to Courtright reservoir early this year. The gate will close Oct 1, 2024 and will remain closed until the spring of 2025

Description

This area has a few face routes and a few cracks. Continuing all the way west on the skirt one can access the Upper Tier as well.

Getting There

Park in one of the turn-outs mostly found on the right side of the road and head towards the slabs. Takes anywhere from 2-4 minutes depending on the turnout. No real trail per se, then skirt the bottom of the south faces of the dome.
