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 RED ROCKS during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.
HUMAN WASTE Human waste is one of the major issues plaguing Red Rocks. The Las Vegas Climbers Liaison Council and the AAC provides free "wag bags" in several locations (Black Velvet, First Pullout, Kraft Mtn/Bouldering, The Gallery, and The Black Corridor). These bags are designed so that you can pack your waste out - consider bringing one to be part of your kit (just like your rope and shoes and lunch) no matter where you go. Once used, please dispose of them properly (do not throw them in the toilets at the parking area).

Description
From about a quarter of the way up the approach gully, scramble up and left onto ledge beneath a triangular "sub-buttress." Follow discontinuous cracks up and left on deteriorating rock to the top of the sub-buttress. Continue up less-than-stellar rock to ledges beneath the headwall on Uptown Hustler. Move slightly right and climb a reddish crack to the top, or follow one of the Uptown Hustler variations. Scramble north to the summit.
