Access Issue: Red Rock RAIN AND WET ROCK: The sandstone is fragile and is very easily damaged when wet.
Details
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 RED ROCKS during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.
HUMAN WASTE Human waste is one of the major issues plaguing Red Rocks. The Las Vegas Climbers Liaison Council and the AAC provides free "wag bags" in several locations (Black Velvet, First Pullout, Kraft Mtn/Bouldering, The Gallery, and The Black Corridor). These bags are designed so that you can pack your waste out - consider bringing one to be part of your kit (just like your rope and shoes and lunch) no matter where you go. Once used, please dispose of them properly (do not throw them in the toilets at the parking area).

Description
From a sit start on a bridged pad, begin with hands at the same elevation on good holds at about face height. Small pocket for the right and any other good hold for the left. Climb up and slightly right through crimps and fins. Low crux.
Location
On the same boulder as Name Plate but a tier above. While directly in front of and facing Name Plate, turn to your left and enter the tunnel. At the point of convergence, stem up the boulders at the same point that you will fold the pad for your sit start. Climb the steep south facing overhang on the second tier.
