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.
Climb an initial easy section, protected by a .75 Camalot to a ledge below the left-facing corner capped by a roof. Climb good hands in a corner to a pod. Above the crack stays wide but good face features keep it sane before reaching the roof.Climb the roof to the right with big face holds for the feet. Above the roof is an initial section of thin-hand jams before reaching good hand jams before the anchor.
