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
If you are a badass putting 5.12s up on lead you can get away with wearing silly tights. Glad that trend was short lived, for the men anyway.
Pay close attention on the slippery start to avoid falling before the first bolt. A well protected crux at the second bolt leads to great, though sometimes small, edges up the clean wall. A short easier section with a bit less than perfect rock leads to a steep pumpy jug haul to the anchor.
