Access Issue: RAIN & WET ROCK Details

Stoney Point sandstone 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 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 gyms in the area if you need a fix!

Description

One Stoney's best moderate top-rope problems.

Getting up to the roof ironically provides the crux move; a tricky high-step with hands down low. The roof is pure fun if executed correctly. The slab above provides thoughtful moves to the anchor.
