Access Issue: As of November 2021, there are new parking arrangements. Please follow this guidance.
Details
The current parking area is now limited parking, subject to the following guidelines:
No parking weekdays before 4pm. (Use Saltbox Parking Area at these times).
Do not block pump station access gates at any time.
Be careful not to hit or disturb manholes or other infrastructure.
The Saltbox Parking Area is a new resource, available on weekdays and weekends. Don't bushwhack or create new trails from this area.
Torne Brook Road and the trailhead remain a no-parking area. This is to ensure access for emergency personnel.
Inconsiderate or illegal parking here could lead to permanent closure.
Description
Dramatic roof turns out to be not as hard as it looks -- with some creative moves required.
Slab to a pillar, then take the obvious wide crack (Every which way) through the roof. Rewarded by some thoughtful slopers in the corner to the top.
Originally climbed as boulder problem (with a scary landing).
. . (? the 2011 print guidebook suggests that there might be a V7 / 5.13 variation ? "Deez Titanium Ballz" ?).
name: One of the most popular films starring Clint Eastwood -- together with Sondra Locke and Clyde the orangutan.
warning: Loose rock is still a concern here. Belayer or other members of party should not stand anywhere near underneath the climber.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
