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

Nice collections of routes from 5.5 to 5.8 on featured rock. The cliff faces southeast and has sun for most of the day with some shade in the later part of the afternoon.

Getting There

From the right end of The Cactus Massacre Wall, go up the wide drainage, pass under "The Sun Dial Wall", dark wall on right side of drainage. 75'-100' further up the drainage the "Child's Play Wall" will appear on the left.

Dog Friendly Approach: An easier approach, albeit slightly longer.

From the right end of the Cactus Massacre Wall, walk climbers right past the drainage up a short slope, as if heading to the Civilization Wall, at the top of the slope, continue up and left, as if heading for the "Climb Bomb" or "Universal City" area. Keep traversing left, (and up) until you are able to see the right end of the Cactus Massacre Wall, the route "End of the Cactus", and the Child's Play Wall. To the right, (slightly below Universal City) there is a ramp that leads to the base of Child's Play Wall.
