Résumé

A collection of several sport climbs off highway 50 just West of Meyers.

Description

Many granite slab climbs, mostly sport, and a few multipitches. Most climbs are between 5.6 - 5.10 range.

Limit. de l'accès

Parking is very limited near the trailhead. To make parking more convenient, safe, and to prevent causing any access issues to the area, we strongly suggest parking in the open lot of Divided Sky, a nearby restaurant, then carpool over. The owners and patrons of Divided Sky are an avid outdoors community and support parking there to access trailheads while reducing parking issues.

Approche

From South Lake Tahoe drive toward Sacramento on Hwy 50 West. After passing through Meyers area you will see a turnout to the right with a big green avalanche control guntower. (DO NOT PARK HERE) If you start going around the bend to the left up Echo Summit you went too far; the guntower turnout is just at the bottom of the summit. Use this turnout to safely turn around (toward Meyers) and park on the shoulder OFF of the pavement (also known as parking for Bottle Creek crag).

GPS coords of parking: 38.8423, -120.0404

Once parked cross the street to the small turnout with the green avalanche control guntower. Walk downhill and to the left where there is a brown gate. This is the trail head.

See individual areas for each cliff.
