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
On the fingerhut boulder. Climb the arete opposite of Poricini Portobello. Looking at Michelangelo it is down and to the right. Sit start on obvious flat finger-slot holds, cross left hand to a good sloper, come right hand to a small crimp by the sloper, go right hand high to a small crimp-gaston, match, then go go to the pinch on the arete and finish on poricini portobello.
