Access Issue: Don't climb on wet rock!
Details
Attention:
Don't climb on wet rock! Sandstone is a porous rock type that can absorb a lot of water. It can lose up to 75% of its strength while wet, making it easy to snap off holds and irreparably damage classic climbs. Wait 48 to 72hrs after precipitation. If the ground is still damp then the rock is still wet. A great way to check for precipitation history before traveling to Joe's is to go to this site-
climate.usu.edu/mchd/dashbo…
and under "Data Charts" click the "Precipitation" tab. Make sure the surface wetness is 0 before climbing.

A stellar line of pockets!
Several variations exist, my personal favorite uses two monos :)
Fun line to a nice mantel

Location
Sit/squat start in the left-most pair of pockets just above Blue Eyed, and make fun moves through the pockets to the right. About 3 moves in, you can go up with your left to a decent mono(and them move to another mono with your right), or make an awkward left cross to a slightly better hold. Easy topout, just find the pocket in the back.
