The Spires was a mob scene this saturday, so we went up the road to find some solitude at Wrights Lake, and we were not disappointed, not a person in sight. the crag was ours. Wright Lake is an awesome place to climb, and on a hot day there are some great swimming holes hear by.

Nice, I've walked around the lake bits briefly, and can't wait to explore more.
Thanks for sharing!

@ squishy, bro! your trippen, wrights lake is to close to the leap and the spires to ever be a zoo, plus it's too far for the new climbing generation to walk, and if you are going to make a negative comment, please write it correctly! happy climbing mike a. :-)

A bunch of us used to climb there in the late 80's and early 90's, we spent many happy weekends out there doing new routes. I should dig out my slides. I can't remember too well where that 11b route is, is it somewhere to the R of "Spanish Flamethrower"?
There's a reasonably decent 5.8 way over on the L side of the cliff, it goes over a roof then up a face. I mention it because a casual observer will never find it.
