I have been on the road for a couple weeks now, but my first stop was cal dome, saw only one climbing party the three day we were climbing at cal dome, beautiful and fun place to climb, but the other camper that were there sure left a lot of trash all around, and the thing that make me think, really really come on people :-( was people have been skeet shooting off the top of cal dome, walking to the base of totally buzzed pinnacle you can find shot gun shells all over and pieces of clay pijeons all over the ground as well, it make me super sad that people would trash such a beautiful place, but besides all of the trash i had a awesome time at cal dome, happy climbing mike a.

Ellis Road is passable for a four wheel or high clearance vehicle, but the washout is not actually repaired yet (Sept. 2012). Otherwise suggest the slightly longer but more high speed (quicker) approach- continue up 88 to Bear River reservoir, cross the dam and the ridge across the way (Forest road 8n40), then take right on 8N16, down to the domes!

Cool shots mikea, I was almost disappointed, until I saw your signature beer in one hand wave with other picture. You always look like you are having tons of fun. That's good.

the road can be past with any can, yes it is open one line, but it's ok with any car, stair case crack is at the dirt road before the bridge before the big boulder camp site. go up the dirt road until the road ends at the aquaduct on the left follow creek up hill, park and follow the aquaduct on the south side "left" side walk 150 yards to the stair case, crack on left, anchors on top of stairs, hope that helps.
