Description

My friends and I are finding chalk all over the place, so we don't take naming our "first ascents" too seriously. Mostly for fun and categorization purposes. There are plenty of new gems to discover.

There is also lots of poison oak. Be careful, even if the plant doesn't have leaves on it, you can get it from the stalk.

Getting There

From Nevada City, follow Highway 49 North towards Downieville. The crossing is 7 miles from Nevada city.
