Access Issue: Bridges Out! IMPORTANT LADWP NEGOTIATIONS!! Details

Due to liability concerns, bridges are being removed in the Owens River Gorge at the request of LADWP. The Bishop Area Climbers Coalition and the Access Fund are currently in negotiations with LADWP to get this issue resolved. In the meantime, please continue to be good land stewards by respecting these bridge closures and finding alternate crossing points until this issue is resolved.

1) Never park or camp overnight at the access points.
2) Always park off the pavement, taking great care to avoid blocking the gates.
3) Clean up after your dogs. (Local climbers are finding abandoned doggie poop bags.)
4) Pack out all trash and TP, including picking up after others.
5) Use the outhouses if at all possible.

Description

A west facing 'tweener area -- it abuts both the right side of the Dilithium Crystal and the left side of the Eldorado Roof -- offering a handful of off-vertical face climbs. This area was newly designated in the 10th edition of Lewis' guide; it used to be called Eldorado Roof - Far Left. The signature climb here is the long face route, Probation Violation.

Getting There

The shortest approach is probably walking left from the Eldorado roof (approx 30 seconds) after descending the Central Gully and walking up the road. Alternatively, it is very close to the Dilithium Crystal if you happen to be there.
