Description:

For more information, support the park and buy the guidebook by Stewart Green. I dont usually use height as an excuse but beware if you are shorter than say 5' 10". I can completely see how this is a 10A if you are that tall because all theholds are super positive and there but if you are shorter than that you need to throw in ALOT of intermediate moves that make this much harder. Just keep this in mind. Very fun route with an unbelievably delicate bouldery start.

Descent Options:

Single Rope Rappel

3 out of 5 stars Hard start

Hard start, slippy for feet. After the second bolt it's an easy climb.

3 out of 5 stars Easy route, hard beginning

Very strange beginning for Red Rock Canyon. Long way from first bolt which is unusual for this area

4 out of 5 stars High H20

All in the feet with very little hand holds. My little feet and hands had the advantage.
