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
Begin at a scoop to the right of Fear This Sport. Start by climbing the right of the scoop and trend left for a few bouldery moves. Easier climbing after the first bolt. An easier version of Fear This Sport; will clean up nicely with some travel.
Location
Right of Fear This Sport. This route was bolted some years ago and appears in the old Swain book as a project. The bolts were pulled and as far as I know, the line was never sent. I re-bolted this route in early Sept., 2007. If it was sent before, then I hope an old route has been resurrected. Enjoy!
