The Bar

Located near Auburn, this area features one boulder worth checking out, seated right on the bank of the Middle Fork of the American River. Difficulty ranges from V0-V8ish. One problem felt V9, but that was probably due to the humidity, making the starting hands and feet ultra greasy. Here is a video featuring a fun V4.

Note: Make sure to pay the $10 entrance fee or else you'll be hit with a steep fine. Also watch out for rattlesnakes over the summer.
