Access Issue: No overnight camping on PG&E property Details

Noticed several tents while walking into the emeralds climbing area this last weekend ( 5/20/17 ). PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric) has posted several signs at the gate and other areas that state camping is NOT allowed. Please respect this so that access does not become an issue! Thanks in advance, Colby W.

Description

This route starts a few feet to the right of the arete. Climb towards the arete on overhanging rock with good holds, then follow the bolt line straight up. The crux is pulling an overhanging bulge at the second bolt. A blind reach to an ok hold with better holds to follow. May 25, 2017

The anchors are accessible from the gully and ledges located on the right (climber's) side of the route. Jul 14, 2019
