I was just making my way back from Canyonlands on UT st highway 313 back to Moab when my eyes wandered over to this wall on the left side of the road. The wall was dotted with huge huecos, and as I was looking up for route potential, I saw some fixed anchors with some ratty slings. naturally, I got out of the car and walked the wall and spotted about 10 established lines, some partially bolted, some cracks, all with no chalk, and all with ratty, weathered slings at the anchors. half of the bolts looked like someone got some fatty hardware store bolts and threw them up there with no hangars. the first route (closest to canyonlands) had a draw and a biner on two of the bolts. this was between mile markers 20-21(?). Anyways, its not in the falcon guide, and as far as I could tell, not on this site.
I probably didn't have to write a novel, but can anyone tell me about this place?

hey, I know the exact place you are talking about, I have looked at those climbs as well, but I know absolutely nothing else about them. They didn't really look that good, either.
