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 northwest-facing wall sits about half a mile past the Ice Cream Parlor (if driving from Moab). There are three crisp crack routes and an enjoyable bolted route, all 5.8-5.10. The rock here is Wingate, but don't expect ICP quality rock on these infrequently traveled climbs. Routes here are pretty decent for moderate desert obscurities. Shady until late afternoon.
I heard the name Camalot Wall for this area through the grapevine. Kind of unfortunate as there's another Camalot across the valley, but so it goes.
