I was supposed to be in the Valley this weekend too but bailed, in large part due to the shutdown (which doesn't look like finishing before the weekend - stoopid fuggin politicians!!!!). The group I was going with were thinking of heading up to Pinecrest (Sonora Pass) instead. It's pretty high elevation though and is going to be a bit on the cold side (30 - 75).

Tahoe has loads of good options, so is always a good backup plan, if not exactly world class. The East Side (Owens River Gorge + endless world class bouldering) is worth a look if you haven't been there - mostly single pitch sport.

If you come through SF and want to hit one of the local crags, let me know - pmonks AT gmail.
