the reward after a long hard day

Climb at your own risk

Lead bolts do not fall on these...

Go there on a weekday and you might just have the place to yourself... Jerry and I did! heh heh

Valentine's Day 2016 @ Point Dume. It was a great day!

West Wall

There are a couple boulders in the area that you can climb, though the routes are pretty short and easy.

TR solo on a nice relaxing day away from the cold.

The trail to the top of the wall, at Point Dume, travels through delicate cliff-side habitat. This area enjoys the State Park's highest level of protection. Please stay on the trail and observe all posted signs.

Covid protocols ongoing, now plus smokey air from state-wide wildfires (none nearby). Better air today. AQI of 50 in morning, steadily up to 62 by mid-day, despite look of typical nice Malibu beach day. Still, much better than inland areas.

17MAY2015 There were some climbers there hogging up all the anchor bolts so two hours later I finally roped up on the other side of the cliff from a boulder and went. Was a little sketchy. I do not reccmmend it. But it's done. Endex.

Christian self-belaying up the face

The first bolt on the South face right side route(5.10b). It obviously is not very strong so I would not recommend leading that route

The approach, living in So-Cal is rough

The Arete is a great solo

The South Face.

One more shot of a lead bolt at Point Dume: as visible in this photo, most of the mass of the buttonhead has been eliminated by corrosion. There is very little material actually holding the hanger to the wall.

Locals get to park at the best spot inside the VIP area cordoned off by orange cones. All others have to park farther away, with the riffraff. Just the way it is.
