When we were in Red Rocks, the weather wasn't good. We talked to some locals at the base of Birdland who said climbing wet is fine, as long as it's a route with mostly cracks. Cracks aren't as affected. If you're doing a route with a lot of face climbing, then it's more risky.

It is simply a very bad idea to climb at RRC during or shortly after a rainstorm. The rock is highly compromised.

That's what I've heard, so we just compromised and climbed crack routes.

i'd bug the locals, but after flash flooding, etc, i'd give it a couple days...

Burch, leave the poor kids alone. The last things we need is yet another "When is RR's good to after the rain" thread

Hey Gang,

Thanks for all the support! I had a great 4th class hike on this route. Appreciate all the feedback and stoke from the community!

Andre.
