Access Issue: RAIN, WET ROCK and RAPTOR CLOSURES: The sandstone around Moab is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Also please ask and be aware of Raptor Closures in areas such as CAT WALL and RESERVOIR WALL in Indian Creek
Details
WET ROCK: 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 MOAB during or after rain.
RAPTOR CLOSURES: please be aware of seasonal raptor closures. They occur annually in the spring.

Description
The Little Italy Canyon mouth is across Hart Creek to the NE from the parking at the end of the 2-tack. From 1995 through 2002 the Laramie Contingency put up 49 pitches in this side canyon to Hard Draw. They all have welded cold shut rap anchors. Several of us are trying to recall from photos the routes we did and mark them here for others. Thanks for some patience.
