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
This is a long, serious route, following mostly wide cracks. It is not actually on the Horseshoe Wall, but that's close enough for now...
Route finding is easy on this route, once you find your way to the base. Check the accompanying photo from Red Rock Odyssey to find the line for the approach.
From the rope-up spot, climb six pitches up the obvious crack. Then, go right in the gully and chimney system to the top. The most obvious descent is through First Creek.
There is an entire chapter about this route in Red Rock Odyssey
