HUMAN WASTE Human waste is one of the major issues plaguing Red Rocks. The Las Vegas Climbers Liaison Council and the AAC provides free "wag bags" in several locations (Black Velvet, First Pullout, Kraft Mtn/Bouldering, 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 kit (just like your rope and shoes and lunch) no matter where you go. Once used, please dispose of them properly (do not throw them in the toilets at the parking area).
Description
Climbs through a water streak on the left side of the wall.
Cruxy moves through the first bolt lead to an interesting sequence on a series of natural pockets and sidepulls. The climbing eases up at the third bolt but remains thought-provoking and pumpy for a few more bolts before some excellent hand jams and jugs lead to an easy finish.
As with other water streak climbs on the wall, this route can require an initial ascent to brush and chalk the holds after periods of rain.
