Access Issue: The State Rec Area closes at dusk - most parking areas are self-paid
Details
Most of Auburn SRA is open from 7 am to sunset. Leave early enough to be off the trails before dusk. Most parking requires self registration fees in cash envelopes (or annual state park passes), and is enthusiastically enforced. Check the Auburn State Recreation Area website at parks.ca.gov/?page_id=502 for current information. Note that the park's policy is that technical roped climbing is only permitted in the Cave Valley/Quarry area - outside the fenced private quarry at the back. Unroped climbing - aka bouldering or DWS - is allowed everywhere with a safe landing.
Description
This route is the right-most existing climb on the Wreckage Wall. To get the safest start to the route, climb up to the second grassy ledge above the main floor of the Wreckage Wall.
Climb up 3 short bolts using large jugs on a mostly vertical face. There are certainly some tricky sections with hidden holds which make this a really good 5.8 climb.
