Pub Wall is a rock climbing area in California on land managed by the city. It sits in a tight cluster of crags, with High Tension Towers and Riverside Island each about 0.1 mile away. Spring and fall are the most comfortable seasons. Typical averages at a weather station near Bishop run about 74°F for highs and 37°F for lows in April, and about 78°F and 37°F in October. Summer highs there reach around 100°F in July. The crag sits roughly 1,200 feet above that station, so temperatures at the wall run cooler. Beyond the neighboring crags, Lower Rock Creek Trail, Section 3 is about 1.9 miles away, and Tuff Campground offers camping about 6 miles off.
