Access Issue: IMPORTANT notes on Wet Rock and Human Waste
Details
WET ROCK: The sandstone in Red Rocks is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. 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 bone-dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.
HUMAN WASTE: Human waste is a major issue plaguing the area. The Southern Nevada Climbers Coalition (SNCC) works to provide "wag bags" free of charge in several locations: Black Velvet Canyon, The Hamlet, Kraft Mountain Area, 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 daily kit no matter where you go. Once used, please dispose of them properly. Do not throw them in the toilets at the parking areas.

Description
The Beer and Ice Gully is a little travelled area that is home to some testpiece routes in Red Rock. Along with Terminal Velocity (5.13a), numerous .11's and .12's can be found here, along with the potential for many more! The rock quality is good overall, and the gully is shaded most of the day.
Getting There
From Straight Shooter, head west and hug the cliff, then head up into the first major gully you come to. This is the Beer and Ice Gully. Most of the routes are back in quite a ways, and its a bit of a slog to get up there. Some interesting 4th class is involved. Routes are, for the most part, on your right.
