[IN THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA]
Is closed from 0.2 mi east of Angelus Oaks /at Mill Creek Rd/ to 4.6 mi east of Angelus Oaks /at Hill Ranch Rd/ (San Bernardino Co) - Due to mudslide - Motorists are advised to use an alternate route
Description
Up a slippery slab to some good holds under the roof and then power out the somewhat reachy roof with a wild sequence to finish on easy slab to anchors - fun!
One of the first lines on the Motherlode Wall, this was orignally done with just two bolts (the second and third) and no anchors but later retro-bolted to make a popular and often done route.
Location
Left side of the north face and easily identified as a slab to corner capped by a roof. Nitroglycerin is just to the right on the arete.
