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-

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

Description
A nice arete, with interesting moves, and cool holds. This is the arete to the right of Save Yourself.
Start with with both hands on holds on the arete at about chest to head hight. Pull on and make a big move to a pocket on the right side of the arete with the right hand. Left hand to a sloper on the left side. Continue up to more slopers, and a mantle where the angle eases off.
