WET ROCK: 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 MOAB during or after rain.
Indian Creek 2019 info: or the linkblm.gov/press-release/annou….
RAPTOR CLOSURES: please be aware of seasonal raptor closures at the Cat Wall and Reservoir Wall. They occur annually from March 31st until August 31st. *Due to the federal hiring freeze in agencies such as the BLM of Monticello, no official closure for 2017 has been issued and the laws which have been put in place in previous years are not being enforced. Please, for the sake of fragile desert ecology, DO NOT CLIMB at stated walls. These raptors return to the same nesting sites every year to raise their nestlings.

Description
This is the sunny wall across the way from the Maverick Buttress. Great winter crag with lots of sandy classics, although not as concentrated as Maverick.
Should be noted that there are 2 walls up here left and right and there is definitely a small but noticeable (esp if you aren’t expecting it) hike between the two walls

Getting There
Take Potash Rd. to the Jug Handle Arch pullout that accesses Long's Canyon and drive a ways. Park at the first of the switchbacks just before reaching Maverick Buttress near two gullys. Hike up the right hand gully that accesses the bench at the base of the wall. Most of the routes are on the right end of the wall. There is lots of beautiful petrified wood in the area.
