Access Issue: This crag may be on Private Property! Details

The access situation here is a bit murky. According to "Shelf Road Rock", the crag is likely located on state land that is leased to a local rancher. Climbers should treat this area as though it were private property. Keep a low profile, leave your dogs at home, and keep the noise down.

Per Brandon Schirm: you need a fishing or hunting license to use this crag. It's part of a trust land, so therefore if you don't pay the fee potentially you could receive a fine. On 9-12-20, the cost of a fishing license was $33.42.

Description

Among the best 5.11s at the GBN, this line climbs a beautiful swath of highly pocketed stone. With excellent movement and bomber stone, this would be a 4-star line if it were a bit longer.

Sinker 2-finger pockets and a few optional monos lead up and left to a recessed dihedral. Work up this feature to worsening holds and the crux reach moving past the perfectly located third bolt. Sharp crimps and hard-to-see pockets move over the small roof to the anchor.
