The BLM office in Monticello has asked the Friends of Indian Creek to remind climbers that there is a 14-day limit on camping on BLM Land. The F.O.I.C. understands that there is a bit of a history of staying in the Creek for far longer, but heavy climber-traffic in the area has made the BLM take notice of this tradition. Be aware that overstaying the 14-day limit makes climbers look as if we feel the rules don't apply to us and thus has an effect on long-term access. Moving your campsite throughout the season, or perhaps finding a site outside the main Indian Creek area, will not only help smooth relations with the BLM, but will also keep you from possibly getting hit with a fine.
Really good route. I toproped it at the end of a long day, just before dark. It was easy to TR off the anchors for 3AM Crack. I did not have a directional at the top, but one would be ok. The swing back over to the 3AM dihedral after falling off or completing the route is nothing.
Yellow #2s are useful. Almost entirely perfect hands except for fingers in the first few feet and then thin hands (red #1) at the top.
