Access Issue: Don't climb on wet rock! Details

Attention:

Don't climb on wet rock! Sandstone is a porous rock type that can absorb a lot of water. It can lose up to 75% of its strength while wet, making it easy to snap off holds and irreparably damage classic climbs. Wait 48 to 72hrs after precipitation. If the ground is still damp then the rock is still wet. A great way to check for precipitation history before traveling to Joe's is to go to this site-

climate.usu.edu/mchd/dashbo…

and under "Data Charts" click the "Precipitation" tab. Make sure the surface wetness is 0 before climbing.

Description

Start Amtrak with an awkwardly high step, do a couple of easy moves on good feet, and commit to the tricky and scary topout. Be proud if you flash this thing - it feels pretty odd and a little insecure up there.
The grade is a point of contention, but I felt it was much more like v4, potentially v3, than the v2 it's given in Isaac's guide. Certainly much harder than The Angler, and harder than Chi.
