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
Nice location on the Megalithic shield. Primarily an off-vertical slab.
From the DS belay anchor go up and slightly left instead of stepping right as for the DS start. Pass a hole and continue to a right leaning dihedral/offset. Follow this to the mussies.
As you look down at the bridge parts you may understand the name.
