Warning Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closures ***** RAIN AND WET ROCK ***** The sandstone in Zion 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 IN ZION 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.

Description Suggest change

I'm adding this route here so that no one will make the same mistake that we made.

P1: The same as Immaculate Conception. 5.10
P2: Climb a short, sketchy face past a tree, then up and right (this is when the climb diverses from immaculate conception) till you get to the base of right facing corner with a # 4 camalot size crack at the base. 5.9
P3: Climb the OW that gets wider at the top. When the crack ends, face climb till you get to a small ledge with bushes. 5.9
P4: Go up on the face and move right to a huge left facing corner. Tons of loose blocks. 5.10
P5:Traverse left about 30-40 feet till you get to a large right facing corner with a wide crack (#5-6 camalot size) at your waist level. Tons of loose blocks here as well.
P6: Step right and go over a little roof and love your life. 5.10

Location Suggest change

Located on the left side of the Right Mary. Start at a crack on a face with lots of featured black patina. This is located a bit left of a prominent right-facing corner.

Protection Suggest change

Doubles of cams from tiny through a 3 or 4 camalot. Singles up to a #5 or #6 camalot. 1 set of nuts. Multiple slings. There are no bolts or fixed anchors.
