Closed March 15 through June 30 MORE INFO >>> Black Rocks is in the Red Cliffs Desert Reserve. No climbing is allowed at Black Rocks from March 15 through June 30 in order to provide an undisturbed environment for Desert Tortoise mating. In addition, all pets in the Reserve must be kept on a leash at all times. This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

A steep and tense climb over big pockets and sharp edges. Short and stout, a subtle right leaning traverse across the face gains the anchors. A rather homogeneous Black Rocks route, but a good tick if you're in the area or want "one more for the road".

Location 

Located at the farthest west end of the Shady Side, this is currently the third to last route on the wall.

Protection 

Five bolts and a rap anchor.
