Red Rock Canyon Open Space is currently CLOSED to all access due to flood damage.
June 25, 2019: per Stewart M. Green: the only route that is closed on the wall is Storm Surge, which is closed indefinitely due to continued rockfall.
Description
This is a fun lead with three distinct cruxes throughout the climb, each of them is well-bolted. It is classic Red Rock Canyon with lots of smearing, small edges, and tenious stances...as well as sand if it was any time near a storm (wind, rain, or otherwise).
Location
It is the fifth set of anchors from the north on the Ripple Wall. It is just left of a block at the base of the cliff (which is the start for Baja Ha Ha).
