Access Issue: Ship Rock is located on the Navajo Nation Details

Climbing is ILLEGAL on the Navajo Nation including Ship Rock. According to the most recently published guide on Ship Rock ("Desert Rock", and "50 Classics.."), Ship Rock was placed off limits to climbing in 1967, but the ban was not enforced until 1970, following an accident.

It is probably legal to drive to the base. It is reportedly illegal to camp there. However widespread litter suggests that this is a popular "party spot" (which may be deterrent in of itself). It is illegal to collect or remove rocks on the Navajo Nation, without a permit.

This area is included on MP for historical purposes and to inform would-be suitors that climbing Ship Rock is illegal.
