Access Issue: Bridges Out! IMPORTANT LADWP NEGOTIATIONS!!
Details
Due to liability concerns, bridges are being removed in the Owens River Gorge at the request of LADWP. The Bishop Area Climbers Coalition and the Access Fund are currently in negotiations with LADWP to get this issue resolved. In the meantime, please continue to be good land stewards by respecting these bridge closures and finding alternate crossing points until this issue is resolved.
1) Never park or camp overnight at the access points.
2) Always park off the pavement, taking great care to avoid blocking the gates.
3) Clean up after your dogs. (Local climbers are finding abandoned doggie poop bags.)
4) Pack out all trash and TP, including picking up after others.
5) Use the outhouses if at all possible.

Description
Most people will probably avoid this thing like the plague, but it is actually quite good. It is the lefthand route on the beautiful pink slab. Right off the ground the climbing is thin, hard and slabby. A little less than half way up the even harder slabby crux hits you. If you can crimp past this, you will finally be rewarded with actual holds and slightly easier climbing to the top of the tower.
