Access Issue: Red Rock RAIN AND WET ROCK: The sandstone is fragile and is very easily damaged when wet.
Details
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 dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.
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).

We decided to climb Crag Hag trad (5.7+ in guide book) after we climbed Dream Girl 5.4 ( route next door ) since we were rappelling down this route anyway. Located at Willow Springs, Mother's Crag, in Red Rock Canyon in Las Vegas Nevada. There was a great rap tree to set up a top rope on which took zero effort. The devilish sun was hunting us down, so we were game for a quick and efficient ascent. That's the beauty with this area. You can start at one end of Willow Springs and work your way down the wall. This rating of 5.7+ was very soft in my opinion. I think Dream Girl at 5.4 was harder. Love this area! Oct 2, 2019
