Access Issue: 1. RAIN & WET ROCK 2. DANGER OF EROSION Details

1. Texas Canyon is conglomerate that is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. 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 during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp, then do not climb.

2. The south end of the First Corridor is in danger of collapsing at the base of Sophie’s Choice. A dam of rocks and soil has been built to divert water away from the eroding soil underneath these huge boulders. Please help keep this system in place until a more permanent solution is implemented.

Description

Hoodoo Canyon is the complex of boulders, alcoves, and rock formations in the canyon below and a mile west of Texas Canyon.

Getting There

Hoodoo Canyon is reached by driving one mile north, from the Texas Canyon parking area, to Staging Area #1 (OHV Area). From Staging Area #1 drive west on Indian Truck Trail to the base of the canyon. At the bottom of the hill progress to Bouquet Canyon is blocked by a locked gate.
