Access Issue: Fragile Sandstone: Don't Climb Wet Rock
Details
Kelly Canyon is a sandstone climbing area and the rock is very fragile when wet. Be aware of recent weather and ask a local if you are unsure of conditions. Do not climb for at least a day following rainfall. Do not climb on rock that is visibly moist or seeping.
Description
Great compression moves on a seductive feature. Begin low, at a sloper in a horizontal seam. Squeeze the rippled left wall and big slopers out right, finishing on vertical rock with a couple long reaches. Be careful what you grab while topping out. This would be a popular classic if not for the large, pointy boulder in the landing and some poor rock up high.
