Access Issue: PARKING ALONG HIGHWAY 19 Details

**NO PARKING SIGNS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED ALONG ROUTE 19 WHERE IT HAS BEEN CUSTOMARY TO PARK FOR MEADOW RIVER CLIMBING AND BOATING ACCESS. THIS MEANS NO PARKING ALONG ROUTE 19 SOUTH, BETWEEN THE BRIDGE AND UNDERWOOD RD.

THERE IS A NEW PARKING LOT ON DIETZ ROAD OFF OF UNDERWOOD ROAD, PLEASE CARPOOL***

Description

Start with a high step above a low roof and climb the white face, occasionally using holds left of the bolt line. Use nice underclings to reach a jug at the 5th bolt. There is a loose, but seemingly wedged rock in the vertical section of the obvious slightly overhung, angled crack/flake. It is not necessary to use the loose piece as there is a jug in the flake next to the loose peice. Make a couple long moves with tricky feet. Then continue of steeper rock on good holds to the top.
