Access Issue: RAIN & WET ROCK
Details
Stoney Point sandstone 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 (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many gyms in the area if you need a fix!
Description
“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert." Percy Shelley.
The Main Wall has a groove running half way up its middle section, this climb starts left of the groove and diagonals right to the bottom of the groove but traverses boldly (for a TR) right on a foot ledge onto the black plated wall, up this at 5.10ish to a horizontal break. Then tackle the headwall past two pockets (crux) and so to the top.
