The parking lot off Hwy 41G used to be the established point of access to the main canyon, but it is now closed. On 5/31/2020, an access issue arose due to the lot being overcrowded with ~7 vehicles. Saguache County Sheriff was called by the landowners, and the climbers were asked to leave the canyon. Climbers should park at the Penitente Main Canyon and hike in, or park at the established BLM parking lot 1 mile West on 41G and hike the road.
The SLV Climbers Alliance, with support from the Access Fund, is navigating this access issue. Contact slvclimb.org for questions or status reports, or join the Facebook Group "San Luis Valley Climbers Alliance" for the latest updates.
Description
10 feet right of The Reckoning is a corner with beautiful, white rock. This is Court Jester. Right now it is a scary 2 bolt climb (with BAD bolts), but I am planning on fixing this route. It has good rock with good stemming. If you want to top rope, it you can through my brand new anchor on The Reckoning.
Protection
It should just be toproped until it gets fixed with new bolts.
Per Wes O'Rourke: there are new ASCA bolts and anchor as of 2014.
