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.
Great route! The start is steep tight hands that eventually necks down after about 40 feet. The crux for me was the sustained 5.10 liebacking in the dihedral above. A definite must do for this wall.

This route is a classic! Can be done with a single 70m rope.

at least 6 no hands rest that are nicely spaced keeps this thing pretty tame. Great route. You CAN make it down with a 70meter rope.
