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
A strenuous mantel problem utilizing a final chipped hold. Starts off on a series of awkward moves to gain the undercling with slippery feet. Once you suck up into the undercling, the chipped hold is easy to latch onto. Now comes the hard part of manteling up onto the dish with very crappy feet. Avoid the face scrape on the way up into the dish.
Done without the chipped hold in the dish is Yabo Mantel, which makes it much harder (V5)
