Access Issue: Protect Access in Owens River Gorge!
Details
Los Angeles Water and Power grants climbers access and can easily take it away. It is absolutely critical that we remain on good terms with this agency.
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 [Edit]
A beautiful, clean, lightning-bolt crack in the pink face up and left from the belay. Bolted face climbing to the right of a bulge (crux) leads to a traverse left into the corner with the clean wide crack. Climb the wide crack either straight in or you can stem out left to a secondary crack. The anchors are on the right wall on a small ledge. Three stars out of five.
Location [Edit]
Located by climbing Sulu, but instead of going right to the Mr. Check-off anchor, continue up to the Fat Bastard belay.
Protection [Edit]
Three bolts (crux at second) lead to the wide crack in the corner. I usually carry 1 ea. 2"-5" cams plus quickdraws.
