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
On the cliff bands below the Blood Wall there is a varnished face split by a crack. Climb the crack straight up to a pine tree at its top.
The obvious descent is to scramble left (east) and do a short rappel into the tiny canyon leading back to the base of the route.

Location
Walk up the Oak Creek trail, passing beneath the Solar Slab, and drop into the streambed. Go upstream to a point where some brushy third class leads up and left (south) to a ramp system going back toward the road. When you are beneath the route, climb up a 150' fourth-class slab. People less cowardly than myself may scamper up this section with no thoughts about next-of-kin, but we roped up for the ascent. Having just a single rope, we descended this section by down-leading, which seemed like a reasonable compromise.
