Description

Roadside cragging next to the Carson River on volcanic tuff that is vaguely reminiscent of Smith Rock. Faces west and gets full sun after noon. A helmet could be useful, the wall is still shedding its skin.

Getting There

True Value Crag is about 10 miles south of Markleeville on Highway 4. About two miles past the Monitor Pass turn off, look left at the bridge.
