The closures as of now are route specific. In the main cave of the Fortress the whole west wall, gothdrome, and east wall/ bat cave areas are closed with nesting sites above those areas. Only the central super routes (Daily Planet to Flex Luthor) are open. Once nesting has been determined routes may open. No new routing (noisy power drills) can happen during this time period even in the open area. Avoid loud noises if at all possible. Routes east of the main cave are open. Please no caching of gear on Forest Service land. The forest service has been great in working out a very climber friendly management plan please be responsible!
Description
Blood Dries Darker is an epic journey that starts on Metropolis.
Climb Metro's first crux to the 7th bolt (5.12b to the big hueco with a tree in it), then branch right into the orange & black streak via a long move to a slopey rail. Once the colorful rock has been gained & the pump has been shaken, begin up a long, wandering, technical section. After the crux, the route ends with 5 bolts of resistance 5.12- finishing just right of Metropolis.
