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

This starts in the middle of the north face of Dock Rock, facing the parking lot. It begins with a left-facing chimney near the right end. Climb 65 feet up to the anchors visible from the ground. Gear is .75” to 5” with some two foot slings. Be extra careful as there is loose rock everywhere. Belay on a comfortable beach sand ledge. The 2nd pitch starts off hard, place a 1.75” cam and get flared jams to place your foot near the anchors. From there place a small cam (1.5”) and back it up with a 4.5” cam in a pod and gain the next ledge. Place a couple of hand sized pieces in a flare and go for the bolt. After clipping the bolt do a strenuous mantle and then go for the anchors placing a hand cam before the sloping ramp to the anchors. You can rappel the climb with one 80-meter rope or do two rappels.
