Currently the the US Fish and Wildlife Service is reviewing the Comprehensive Conservation Plan and reviewing activities for compatibility. Contact the Access Fund or the Wichita Mountains Climber's Coalition for more information on how you can get involved in keeping the tradition of climbing safe in the Wildlife Refuge. Use extra care to avoid doing anything to change the natural resources in any way.
Access Issue: Access is always an issue here.
Details
Please do not litter and observe all regulations. We had to fight to regain access at one time, and we don't want to lose the privilege again. Local ethics and refuge regulations are that no bolting is permitted unless expressly authorized by the park. Leave the hammer and nails at home, no fixed gear please. Everything will go clean.
Description
Great route with small roof section before getting onto the slab. The crux is on the slabby friction climbing just after the roof.
Location
Just to the Right of "Last Rites" on ENE corner of Lost Dome. A single 60 m rope gets you to the ground from the belay rings.
Protection
Top Rope by climbing "Last Rites" to access anchors, or lead using quick draws being mind. Pull the roof going left to right. Once over the roof, start out on right side then cross to left side of bolt line just past the horn, horizontal crack feature.

btw, a buddy of mine took a good whipper on that yesterday and came away with nothing but a pretty sore hip, elbow, and spirit. Oct 26, 2009
