Dry rock? Yay! I wonder about bivy options- wanting to keep a low profile but if I drive all the way out there I'll want to stay for my weekend. Copacetic?

i don't think this place was ever really a secret, its just out in the middle of friggin' nowhere. pretty decent desert granite, needs some more traffic, lots of boulders, and plenty of first ascents waiting. and you can camp right at the boulders. oh, and i would guess theres a buttload of snow there right now too.

NV has so many cliffs 1/2 a rope in length, that you could spend the rest of your life exploring only a fraction of the goods. Some friends have some multi pitch stuff happening at Purgatory with recommended access from the back. But the projects aren't 100 percent done as we speak so they are under wraps. As for snow it faces westward and next week it's supposed to be in the upper 40's.
I'm going to Sugarloaf or the Pie Shop but I'm sure with a little creativity there is alot to be had at purgatory.

I used to drive by there several times a week on trips to Gelach for work. Scoped the approach but never got there.
Is it on the Res?

The bouldering outside Doyle is fun, very adventurous. Plenty of exploring. Some loose holds. There's a huge monolith in the north/eastern section that's at least 150 ft. Can free solo 5.4 up sixty feet where a bolt line begins. No idea what it goes at or if it's even a finished project. I found a very old rusty piton in the sand, so this place had some early traffic.

I was out there last week and someone had smeared human sh#t all over the holds making the routes unclimbable, except with rubber gloves.
