Warning 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 DetailsDrop down

Description Suggest change

The wall is south facing so it isn't a very good summer area, but is great for the winter mornings.

Getting There Suggest change

The wall is just down steam and across the canyon from the Amasa back trailhead. Park in the main parking lot before you pass Abraxas. Walk past the outhouse and look for a trail It is the obvious prow like area on the right as you look at the large alcove from the trailhead. There are multiple good, clean, one to two pitch crack climbs
