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 route is to the far right side of Blue Gramma. I have not done this route, but am adding it here to designate that it is closed. Some very nice petroglyphs are withing a climber's reach/stem of the crack and I presume that this is why the route has been stripped of its anchors. Please do not climb it.
Just up and right of this route, 10-15 meters over and above a shelf there are somne VERY nice freemont culture glyphs as well. Worth checking out!
Location
To the right of Blue Gramma Cliff, and just right of a series of small glyphs and down and left of some beautiful large ones.
Protection
None- please do not climb it. THe anchors have been pulled anyway.
