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.

Access Issue: Climbing in this area is closed from April 1 - August 15 for bighorn sheep lambing. Details

Description

Blocky wide climbing to off-fingers crux in the corner then cool moves into the splitter handcrack on the right wall. Kind of stout for the grade; felt like 5.10+.

Location

Premier ascends a left-facing corner just right of Matinee and left of U Name It. The route faces SW, but it's in a left-facing corner so it holds shade longer than its neighbors.
