Access Issue: Trails are closed from sunset to 6:00 am. Details

Trails close at sunset. Give yourself enough time to be back at your vehicle (or campsite if you're staying at one) before dark, or the rangers will fine you.

Always visit the Castle Rock State Park website parks.ca.gov/?page_id=538 for fairly current official information.

Description

The only bolted climb on The Globule that faces Indian Rock. The roof is very odd and requires a little resourcefulness, but is still no harder than an .11a once you figure out what you're doing.The rest of the climb takes advantage of the large heucos up the face above.

Protection

3 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor.Stick clip the first bolt, as the crux is getting to the bolt, clipping it and pulling the roof at the first bolt.There is also ground fall potential at the second bolt, but the climbing is pretty easy to it compared to below.
