Access Issue: Line Fire Closure in effect until 11/30/2024
Details
All Forest Service roads and access to the forest are closed due to the recent, and still ongoing, Line Fire.
Closure is in effect until the end of November, but given current conditions and precedent, it's unlikely they will open back up this season.

Description
This is the left-most bolted line on the Pistol Whipped Wall and despite first appearances goes at a moderate grade. The route starts on a short right-slanting ramp system that leads to a flake and then up past several horizontals to reach a steep headwall capped by a slanting dike.
Well protected with an airy feel, this is a good warm-up for the harder lines here and is a recommended climb for the grade at this area.
