Access Issue: Don't climb on wet rock!
Details
Attention:
Don't climb on wet rock! Sandstone is a porous rock type that can absorb a lot of water. It can lose up to 75% of its strength while wet, making it easy to snap off holds and irreparably damage classic climbs. Wait 48 to 72hrs after precipitation. If the ground is still damp then the rock is still wet. A great way to check for precipitation history before traveling to Joe's is to go to this site-
climate.usu.edu/mchd/dashbo…
and under "Data Charts" click the "Precipitation" tab. Make sure the surface wetness is 0 before climbing.

Description
2019 Update: The right starting hand broke off, and now this is much easier than the original V10.
The first move is the hardest on this problem, and if steep crimps aren't your thing then you might do well to look elsewhere. Powerful moves straight out of a cave on small but positive holds with tricky footwork is what this one is all about.
