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
This used to be a variation from "Big Screen", but someone with a good eye (not me) found a fun line left from the initial dihedral. Climb through steep jugs left to a fun and exposed buttress. Slink through a series of techy face moves to a fun ending with great position.
This route shares the upper bolts and anchors with "Bust a Move" (5.12a) which one can top-rope easily.
