Access Issue: Red Rock RAIN AND WET ROCK: The sandstone is fragile and is very easily damaged when wet. Details

Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm, the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB IN RED ROCKS during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.

HUMAN WASTE Human waste is one of the major issues plaguing Red Rocks. The Las Vegas Climbers Liaison Council and the AAC provides free "wag bags" in several locations (Black Velvet, First Pullout, Kraft Mtn/Bouldering, The Gallery, and The Black Corridor). These bags are designed so that you can pack your waste out - consider bringing one to be part of your kit (just like your rope and shoes and lunch) no matter where you go. Once used, please dispose of them properly (do not throw them in the toilets at the parking area).

Description

This sunny cliff see relative little activity. Since the addition of anchors on all but one route it is a nice alternative crag for winter climbing when all the old standbys are crowded. Some of the top outs are a bit dicey but it is easy to walk to the top and set up a top rope.

Getting There

From the sandstone quarry parking lot take the trail into the drainage and cut up uphill right past the large boulder. Follow the ridge past the Sonic Youth cliff. The Numbers crag is the 40' cliff just past and below Broast and Toast.
