Access Issue: Red Rock RAIN AND WET ROCK: The sandstone is fragile and is very easily damaged when wet.
Details
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
The Jerry Handren book describes this pitch as a couple of huge reaches to gain a shallow corner at 11d. We climbed this route on top rope and figured out some beta that involves a two handed dynamic throw to some small sloppey crimps. If done this way we suspect the grade would be more like 5.13 or a V7 boulder problem with 5.9 climbing to access the BP, and 5.11 climbing after. Following the books description (up and left of the bolt into the shallow corner) is probably much harder than V7.
There was zero chalk on the route when we tried it and I'm wondering if anyone has done or tried it recently?!
