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.

See https://www.southernnevadaclimbers.org/wag-bags for more information on the program.

Description

A sunny crag at the top of the Guardian Angel Pass. This crag's belay ledges offer incredible views into the park to the west and the city to the east. The views from the cliff face are even more spectacular - don't forget to look! All routes are protected at the top with anchors. Coupled with a nice Mark Limage route, (November Daze, 5.7, 100') about 50 feet west of Interproximal Stripper, this is an easy place to spend a full day with friends. Enjoy!

Getting There

See parent area (Guardian Angel East) for approach instructions. This wall is on the right (north) side of the pass 100 feet before reaching the saddle point. 25-30 minutes.

The wall can also be approached from Second Pullout (Calico II) in a similar amount of time by continuing past Ethics Wall, though this greatly increases the drive time, and there is much less parking.
