Access Issue: RAIN, WET ROCK and RAPTOR CLOSURES: The sandstone around Moab is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Also please ask and be aware of Raptor Closures in areas such as CAT WALL and RESERVOIR WALL in Indian Creek
Details
WET ROCK: 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 MOAB during or after rain.
RAPTOR CLOSURES: please be aware of seasonal raptor closures. They occur annually in the spring.
Description
The project listed in Karl's book and on the cover photo on The Scars front page (on MP). Pull stacked boulder problems separated by good rests followed by sustained .11 climbing to the chains. The name may help identifying crucial beta.
Originally rated .13b maybe it has gotten easier or helps to be tall. I thought it was 12d so I'll settle on 13a until others have tried it. It's a good one though - I'm not sure which is better Knee Scar or Extended Care.
Location
Just right of Zipper and left of The Flapper
Protection
Stick clipping may be a good idea.
