Access Issue: Climbing restricted due to tourist safety
Details
ACCESS NOTE: Please note that the forest service has restricted climbing for any routes past the area of Red Wagon (just climber’s left of the Trinity Cracks) due to tourist safety. Local access groups are working to get this restriction lifted.
Description
Start with a short overhanging offwidth crux to a ledge, get gear in and head up the easier offwidth above to a blocky finish. Belay from a pine tree set back from the edge.
Location
Just left of The Horn. Start on the belay ledge just right of the snag below Burnt Buns. Obvious overhanging offwidth starts it off.
Protection
Standard rack with pro up to 5". 2 #5 Camalots would be useful, or you can back-clean one after the first offwidth section to use higher up.
