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.
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.

Description
Located in Bluff, Utah, Calf Canyon delivers a few climbable routes, as much of the rock here is too soft to climb. However, the canyon does provide excellent scenery to those willing to check the climbing out.
Getting There
Locate the bed and breakfast in Bluff called La Posada Pintada, where Navajo Twins Drive turns becomes 7th East. Follow the road just to the east of the bed and breakfast for roughly a quarter mile until the creek bed passes under the road. Follow the fairly visible foot trails up into the canyon.
