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
Start high on the right side of the boulder jam, but below the largest boulder at the top of the jam. Climb through some dark varnish on good holds over an initial bulge and onto easier rock to a lower-off anchor.
Location
Located in the right side corridor at the bottom of the Observatory. Approach as for the left side corridor, but once you reach the notch scramble up onto the ledge that forms the corridor with the cliff, on the right. Walk the ledge about 100' until you can drop down into the right side of the boulder jam. The route is next to the highest boulder in the jam on the right side.
