Is climbing near Vegas this weekend insane? Where to go?

I'm going to be in Vegas this weekend and am thinking about trying to do some climbing while I'm there. Is this crazy? I see people in this thread

say climbing in Red Rocks is doable, but 110 degrees seems kind of warm. Is Mount Charleston a better (cooler) choice, or will my lack of anorexia get me run out of town (although I do have capri pants)? Any other areas nearby I should know about?

It's only supposed to be around 80 out at Red Rock this weekend. Should be sweet.

110 F might be a tad bit warm, but the canyons were pleasant over Memorial Day weekend with LV temps in the high 80s to low 90s. In fact I had a hat on for part of Epinephrine. Not a bad time of year for Black Velvet and Ice Box for those of us less cold tolerant souls.

Sqwirll and Fossana are correct, pay attention to your forecast, June is still always doable from Red Rocks to Moab towers . Just focus on north facing aspects. Zion offers tremendous north face free climbing on Tunnel Wall, a ton of excellent 4+ pitches 5.10-12 crack routes many individual pitches within the routes which would rival anything at IC. You will have to monitor road construction mid week (via the Park website) in terms of whether you can get to the 2nd to last turn out which is the trail for these routes. Gypsy's Curse, Lap Dance, Feast of Snakes and POW Right in the Rat are all exceptional summer outings.

If the forecast is right, this weekend's gonna be perrrrfect for long routes in Red Rock's canyons! This might be the last "cool" weekend of the summer season coming up. Have fun!

Now don't I feel silly for not checking the forecast! Getting up to Red Rocks will be fantastic. Thanks all for the advice.

I have climbed in Vegas in Aug before... all you have to do is chase the shade. If you do that you will be comfy and have a great day. When I have gone in the summer I lapped stuff in the black corridor...started the day on one side, and finished the day on the other... not to say that the top of the cimbs in the sun were not hot... but still ok, and did all the routes on the pier... I am not sure of those saw the sun all day. Also went over to Kraft mtn and was able to hit Yin Yang... look for the shade and you’ll be fine.

Then when your day is over (if your not staying in a hotel) you can poach one of the pools at a hotel (i would say hit the Suncoast) and grab a shower in the pool house before you go back to the camp ground. that or cool off in the climbing gym on charleston.
