Crag Rock Climb - Exit 38

After work climbing at Exit 38. Casual outing, but will aim to be efficient and get through a good volume of routes. Initial plan is to head to Substation for some shade/shelter from the heat. Most of the climbing will be in the 5.9-5.10+ range, with options for harder routes if folks are interested. Please review the leader notes prior to signing up.

The goal of this trip will be to get folks on some harder routes ideally in the 5.10 range. We'll have several easier routes - 5.6-5.9 as warmups, but expect to climb ~6 routes with several of those being in the 5.10b-d range. You don't need to be super solid at the grade (my goal is to get folks on routes they might not normally get on / help push their grade), but you should be comfortable enough at the grade to have a good time and work through a good volume over the course of the evening.

I've not climbed here much FYI, so using it as an opportunity to check out a new crag. 

If you have questions, or would like to request permission please feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to get back to you. 

Pending interest and rope lead availability I may expand the roster - please waitlist and I'll see what I can do. 

4PM meeting time at Deception Crags parking lot. Likely will climb until 8PM or so depending on group appetite. 

Discover Pass required at trailhead.
