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
Start atop a boulder and hand traverse a rail to the right until it makes sense to start moving up and left-ish. This route is really fun, with a nice variety of movement in its meager height. It serves as a good warm up for the Great Red Roof.
Location
Approach as for the Great Red Roof. Once under the roof, follow the gully to its left uphill for about 40ft. Skirt left of a 20ft. tall boulder. Climb a 4ft. rock section on the left (west) of the boulder. Now follow a ramp downhill and to the northwest, into the shade, passing a fist crack on the wall to the left. You'll see bolts on the shady north facing wall, 20 ft. past the fist crack.
