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
This ultra-classic rig offers up a sinister menu of thin edging followed by steep resistance climbing through a bulge.
When you're shakin' out at the midway point, imagine soloing that shiz like Bachar did...
Protection
9 bolts to mussy's.

Perhaps even better than the Bachar solo of this is the downclimb of "Xpressway"... Mar 27, 2007
