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
Tackle a funky dihedral that gets the juices flowing, then undercling you way left on a flake system that eventually curves up to the base of a huge roof with an undercling. Undercling left again, marvel at the guano deposit, and clip the anchors.
Back clean to retrieve gear. Fun route, with a killer (optional) knee-bar.
Location
Eldo roof, Obvious flake feature 30 feet right of Looney Tunes/Letter Bomb. Ends on the same anchors as Letter Bomb, the start to Looney Tunes.
