Access Issue: Fire Closures, until at least Oct 26, 2023
Details
As per NF and local official orders, this is in the closure area for the Bedrock fire.
Description
Start out at the base of the Hydrotube. I generally lead up and clip the first bolt of the tube, then veer right (I don't think it adds much rope drag). Some say that a #3 Camalot protects a supposed run-out section to the 2nd bolt, but I'd venture to say that it is not that run out, and gear is a waste of time. Fun slab climbing on good edges and underclings.
A short bouldery crux is thought provoking during the last 3 (very closely spaced) bolts.
One 60m rope works fine if you lower off from the first anchors.
There is a 2nd pitch that climbs a right facing corner but I haven't climbed it. If you plan on climbing the 2nd pitch bring a small selection of gear to 2".
Walk off, or rappel with 2 ropes.
