Access Issue: PARKING ALONG HIGHWAY 19
Details
- **NO PARKING SIGNS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED ALONG ROUTE 19 WHERE IT HAS BEEN CUSTOMARY TO PARK FOR MEADOW RIVER CLIMBING AND BOATING ACCESS. THIS MEANS NO PARKING ALONG ROUTE 19 SOUTH, BETWEEN THE BRIDGE AND UNDERWOOD RD.
Description
Climb up steep rock in a right facing corner. Move left to a heel hook / mantel move off a loose block to a sit down rest on a ledge. Continue past a few more closely-spaced bolts to a ledge. Find a slippery path up sloping holds directly up to the next bolt, or traverse left to more positive holds near Dragon's Tooth, climb up (risking a swinging slab fall) and back right to the bolt line. Continue up and right past two more bolts and prepare from some final crimps directly right of the last bolt and then straight up to the anchors (avoid loose flakes straight above the last bolt, and a loose flake below and right of the anchor).
Fun climbing with the exception of the loose rock and middle slab section.
