Access Issue: IMPORTANT notes on Wet Rock and Human Waste
Details
WET ROCK: The sandstone in Red Rocks is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. 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 bone-dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.
HUMAN WASTE: Human waste is a major issue plaguing the area. The Southern Nevada Climbers Coalition (SNCC) works to provide "wag bags" free of charge in several locations: Black Velvet Canyon, The Hamlet, Kraft Mountain Area, 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 daily kit no matter where you go. Once used, please dispose of them properly. Do not throw them in the toilets at the parking areas.

Description
Although it's called Grumblefish, it might also be called Crumblefish (groan!). Left of the Smears for Fears slab is a large, crumbly looking right-facing corner. Don't worry, it's about as crumbly as it looks. And don't worry, you'll be fine. Start slightly right on two bolts past some wafers on the left. Continue up the corner with good gear part some funky holds and vegetation. Eventually step right to hit the Smears for Fears anchors. A fun route to do because of the wonky holds on it. Also a good way to put a top rope on Smears for Fears if you want to check it out.
