1) Do not leave fixed draws on climbs or fixed ropes anywhere in the canyon.
2) Do not develop new routes. Bolting in Arrow Canyon is illegal.
3) Do not climb within 25’ of petroglyphs. Note that these are often difficult to spot and extreme care should be undertaken. Several routes in the Entry Walls violate this rule and are slated to be removed in the near future. Do not climb these routes.
4) Do not cross private land when driving into Arrow Canyon. Follow directions closely.
5) In the event of an emergency or vehicle problems, do not contact private land owners - reach out to the appropriate authorities.
This area has had access trouble in the past. Fixed draws are not allowed.
The old way in used to cross private property, but the impacted landowner proposed a way to get here without crossing his land. Please follow the directions closely so as to avoid it. Also, if you get your car stuck, try everything possible to avoid going to his house for help.
Description
Some powerful moves through the first 3-4 bolts (including a fairly big deadpoint for shorter climbers) leads to a series of excellent rests separated by thin crimpy face climbing. The crux comes between bolts 5 and 6, plus another cruxy bit getting to the chains. There are two ways to approach the chains, either cutting left and then coming back in on good holds on the left, or staying more direct. Same grade regardless, but the direct way has the better movement, so go that way!
Awesome flowy climbing the whole way, but beware of choss, especially out to the left of the bolt line.
