Access Issue: Bridges Out! IMPORTANT LADWP NEGOTIATIONS!!
Details
Due to liability concerns, bridges are being removed in the Owens River Gorge at the request of LADWP. The Bishop Area Climbers Coalition and the Access Fund are currently in negotiations with LADWP to get this issue resolved. In the meantime, please continue to be good land stewards by respecting these bridge closures and finding alternate crossing points until this issue is resolved.
1) Never park or camp overnight at the access points.
2) Always park off the pavement, taking great care to avoid blocking the gates.
3) Clean up after your dogs. (Local climbers are finding abandoned doggie poop bags.)
4) Pack out all trash and TP, including picking up after others.
5) Use the outhouses if at all possible.

Description
A fun sport climb that sits high above the rest of the gorge. Worth it just for the position, but also has some great climbing. Belay at a two bolt anchor, then move up and right into cracks and interesting angled features. After a cruxy move, a lower angle dihedral is followed to a small stance. Tightly bolted slab above leads to mussy hooks.
Location
This route is about 40 feet right of The Procrastinator, which is the large, left facing dihedral sitting high above the left side of the Negress Wall. To approach, hike up the central gorge trail until about even with dihedral. Exposed class 3 scrambling leads to the base of the Procrastinator and then Better Late.
