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 at the Cat wall and Reservoir wall. They occur annually from March 31st until August 31st. *Due to the federal hiring freeze in agencies such as the BLM of Monticello, no official closure for 2017 has been issued and the laws which have been put in place in previous years are not being enforced. Please, for the sake of fragile desert ecology, DO NOT CLIMB at stated walls. These raptors return to the same nesting sites every year to raise their nestlings.

Description
Start on the same saddle as for both aliens. Free climb the first half at 5.10ish with good gear in some occasional detached flakes. Soon enough the free climbing ended for me and I was doing some thin nailing between cam placements. Then the cam placements end all together. Hammer in some peckers then do some mud juju through shit rock to a fixed KB. Soon enough an anchor presents itself. Anchor is in great shape as of 2018. I added some tat to it.
The guidebook calls this A4 but I don't think it's in that range. Perhaps A2 or A2+ is more fitting for the mystery's.
