The Pie Shop

The Pie Shop is located just south of Lake Tahoe off Highway 50. The rock climbs (and tears up the skin) a lot like Joshua Tree. The crystals are very large and a lot of the top outs are friction oriented like Horse Pens. I was excited to get on the supposed classic line Pimp Juice*, but after wandering around in the sun we decided it wasn't worth it. Luckily we found some problems worth doing at the end of the day and I managed to send a very tough, seemingly sandbagged V7 just before heading back. Here are some photos:

*If you know the specific location of this problem please get ahold of me.
