Access Issue: A portion of the wall is closed due to Indian rock art.
Details
The route Energy Crisis and the rock for 50' on either side of its are closed to climbing to protect Native American rock art in the vicinity.
Description
Two obvious, vertical cracks will be seen on the Northeast face, right. Climb these cracks to the top. We TR'd this route, and I'm glad we did. The pro in the upper crack is PG with a runout. I suggest you TR it, and check it out before doing a lead. As I rapped it, I noted some problems setting pro in the crux area; and a fall there could be very serious indeed.
