The BLM office in Monticello has asked the Friends of Indian Creek to remind climbers that there is a 14-day limit on camping on BLM Land. The F.O.I.C. understands that there is a bit of a history of staying in the Creek for far longer, but heavy climber-traffic in the area has made the BLM take notice of this tradition. Be aware that overstaying the 14-day limit makes climbers look as if we feel the rules don't apply to us and thus has an effect on long-term access. Moving your campsite throughout the season, or perhaps finding a site outside the main Indian Creek area, will not only help smooth relations with the BLM, but will also keep you from possibly getting hit with a fine.
This climb is the next line right, perhaps 10meters, from the obvious line, Fuzz. The route starts in a tight stembox, and the crux of the climb is getting up out of the stembox into a right-facing corner. This is done on an awkward undercling handjam and juse below a 1.5" or 2" cam placement. The climb soon thereafter becomes a left-facing corner, but remains 2" or red camalot for quite some time, providing an enduro pump after the technical crux.Enjoy!

1.5" to 3.5". Crux is on 1.5-2", so take lots of those.
