Access Issue: Follow Park Rules & Inspect Hardware
Details
Rock Climbing is currently listed as one of the activities to enjoy at Miller Springs park, and there are currently no rules or regulations prohibiting climbing here (
templeparks.com/parks___tra…).
However, access in Texas should never be taken for granted, and as such it is important that all visitors take extra care not do something that would jeopardize access in the future. As such, the park rules should be followed, which include observing park hours (8:00 a.m. - Dusk), no firearms or alcohol, no glass containers, and pets on a 6 foot leash. The full list of rules can be found at the above link.
In addition, due to the particularly dangerous nature of rock climbing, access can be jeopardized due to accidents which may occur while climbing.
- ***Please remember to INSPECT BOLTS prior to climbing on them, as many of the routes in this area were bolted nearly 30 years ago. Be VIGILANT when belaying, as rocks can break without warning, and decking is always possible!****
Description
Start on the pocket sprag which is the shared start of Cosmic Thang, Zenith, Steel Wheels, Gauntlet, and Wrath. Dyno to the flake and move straight up through the light grey streak. Hard start on pockets with an easier finish on jugs.
Location
4th route from the left, follow the most obvious bolt line straight up.
Protection
5 bolts + anchors.
