Details
PG&E will be closing access to Courtright reservoir early this year. The gate will close Oct 1, 2024 and will remain closed until the spring of 2025
Description
Climb up to a ledge and traverse left. Clip a bolt and climb up a small ramp to a crack that you can layback. Punch it to a stance to place a piece high above your head and place another piece before getting to a horizontal rest. Clip the bolt above and quickly realize that this is your last piece of protection. Take stock of your edge climbing skills and keep your heart-rate low as you dance your way fifteen feet to the anchor. This is not a sport route and should not be taken lightly. If you fall close to the lip, you could come very close to the ledge below.
Location
This is to the left of New Jersey Attitude. There is tiny pine tree in the rock down and to the left of the first bolt. Locate a bolt about 20 feet up and another bolt right above a horizontal break at about 35 feet.
Protection
A few big finger pieces and a .75 camalot. There are two bolts at the top, but no rap anchor. You can scramble up to clean or rap off of the anchors on This Pussy Eats You.
