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
5x lead protection bolts plus 2 bolt anchor set up for lowering.
From the ground, ascend 10 feet either in our outside the chimney to a ledge under the first bolt.
Step across the gap and pull thin crux moves to a jug to clip the first bolt. This is reachy even for taller folks so bring a stick clip if desired.
Surmount the steepness and continue up the features on lighter colored rock. A wonderful but brief section of near-friction slab brings you to the anchor on a ledge.
If needed, there is a walk off from the top of the wall to the climbers right.
