Access Issue: RAIN & WET ROCK
Details
Stoney Point sandstone is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many gyms in the area if you need a fix!
Description
There are four buttresses on the south side of Stoney Point - this one is just right of Pink Drips wall & South Buttress 1.
It contains several top rope problems at least one of which follows some old sketchy bolts (not leadable).
TRs can be set up by a recently added (March 2021) two-bolt anchor.
