Access Issue: RAIN, WET ROCK and RAPTOR CLOSURES: The sandstone around Moab is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Also please ask and be aware of Raptor Closures in areas such as CAT WALL and RESERVOIR WALL in Indian Creek
Details
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.
RAPTOR CLOSURES: please be aware of seasonal raptor closures. They occur annually in the spring.

Description
Highly secluded area. Many FA's to be had. Rock type: make sure your belayer is wearing a helmet. There might actually be some good climbing on some of the other cliffs in the canyon. Lots of room for adventure!
Getting There
Follow the GPS coordinates to mill creek that are on mountain project. Realize that you have made a horrible mistake, but keep going. Once you have stranded your subaru on the large rocks in the river bed, back up and park. Proceed on foot until the road ends. Keeping your determination to climb, find the small trail that leads up the canyon. Once all hope is lost continue about 500 yards. You will then find yourself with half of the day wasted and pissed you have yet to climb. At this exact point look to your left and find the left facing pile of choss with many pot-holes in the bottom and a thin crack system on top. Decide that you are now desperate enough, yell, "FUCK IT" (trust me no one will hear your frustrated screams) and begin your climbing.
