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.
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.

Indian Creek Raptor Closure walls include: Echos, The Wall, Far Side, Original Meat, Tenderloins, Second Meat, First Meat, Selfish, Six Star, Cliffs of Insanity, Public Service Wall, Disappointment Cliffs, Fin Wall, Broken Tooth, Cat Wall, Slug Wall, Reservoir Wall, Critic’s Choice.

Description
Athletic problem with excellent movement and an exciting finish. Start with a high edge in a mini-dihedral for the right, and a slightly lower crimp for the left. Make a big move to a very slopey sloper...some marginal intermediates and campusing may be helpful. Follow that up with fun edge-pulling into thoughtful stemming up high. You can also just skip the long first move with a jump start to the sloper, which would make it probably around V5/6.
Would be ultra classic if it weren't so reachy at the start and the landing weren't so uhhhhh.
