Hopefully I will be headed down to Enchanted Tower for this holiday weekend. Couple of questions:
1) Is it ok to climb soon after it rains, or does it need time to dry out?
2) Weather forecast says 30% chance of rain every day down there. Is it like Colorado where clouds build up until finally unleashing around 4-6pm? Or is it generally a little more volatile?

Thanks for any help,
Dan Godshall

The rock doesn't need time to dry out, and some of the routes are steep enough to be climbed in a light rain.

The weather patterns are much like here in Colorado.
Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
