Access Issue: 1. RAIN & WET ROCK 2. DANGER OF EROSION
Details
1. Texas Canyon is conglomerate that is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp, then do not climb.
2. The south end of the First Corridor is in danger of collapsing at the base of Sophie’s Choice. A dam of rocks and soil has been built to divert water away from the eroding soil underneath these huge boulders. Please help keep this system in place until a more permanent solution is implemented.

Description
Okay...so before you begin your rant about the choss and loose holds know that you voluntarily tied in to climb in the land of choss (LA Basin) and that you could have gone to Joshua Tree, but chose to save gas while trying to maintain a high climb to drive ratio. Could be worse, you could have gone to Eagle Rock, Calabasas Peak, Simi Valley, or Devil's Punchbowl. Climb sharp pockets and small features to reach the steep face below a slightly overhung bulge. Pull through the bulge on small pockets and cobbles to reach a large white cobble. Surmount the cobble and continue climbing as the angle decreases up a moderate slab with two more bolts and the anchor. The rock and movement are excellent, however the holds are sharp and crunchy.
