Access Issue: Don't climb on wet rock!
Details
Attention:
Don't climb on wet rock! Sandstone is a porous rock type that can absorb a lot of water. It can lose up to 75% of its strength while wet, making it easy to snap off holds and irreparably damage classic climbs. Wait 48 to 72hrs after precipitation. If the ground is still damp then the rock is still wet. A great way to check for precipitation history before traveling to Joe's is to go to this site-
climate.usu.edu/mchd/dashbo…
and under "Data Charts" click the "Precipitation" tab. Make sure the surface wetness is 0 before climbing.

Description
Traverse in from the north, use a paddle board to reach the problem, or traverse in from the south. The north traverse is a bit more pumpy.
Start of the problem is a fist jam in a shelf about chest high. Use your skills to reach a bomber jam up and to the left. Mantle over and wipe the sweat off your brow.
The water underneath is clear to fall, meaning that you can blow the mantle move and not worry about hitting anything in the water.
