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
Sit start on arete. R hand in pocket, L hand in low sidepull crack. L foot has a good foot-jam, R foot smear. Bump up with alternating hands then mantle onto the slab and top out. Don't blow a fuse! Much more strenuous than it looks, if you do the sit start.
Location
NW arete of Circuit boulder. See pic.
