Access Issue: Sheep Aware
Details
Long canyon serves as important habitat for Utah's only endemic herd of Desert Bighorn Sheep. Please be respectful of wild sheep and other wildlife by maintaining a quiet atmosphere and keeping at least 100 meters from animals. Desert Bighorn Sheep are especially sensitive to disturbance between April 1st - June 15th when they are raising their young. Consider limiting your disturbance during this time period by climbing in other areas. You may notice water catchment systems in strategic locations to provide water for wildlife in Long canyon. One of these exists near the trail to Maverick Buttress.
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. They occur annually in the spring.

Description
Pull the off-fingers overhanging bulge to enter the tight hands to hands crack in the left-facing dihedral. The bolted anchors are under the large roof above.
Location
First, visualize the First Switchback area a one large dihedral with The Mother Ship (2 bolts within the first 25 feet of the route leading to a crack in the corner) as the very back of the dihedral). This is the highest point of ground at the base of the cliff. From here, to reach No More Tears, go left (west) along the cliff along a ledge system fora bout 40 yards. You will find this obvious splitter crack in a left-facing corner.
