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.
This Line offers a 5.11 Variation to the First pitch (5.8). Start at the Right of the Triangular Flake and follow on Thin Fingers through the Crux (the 10 feet after the white Band) until you reach the final Jug holds at the top of the Flake.
Location
This Route is 10 Feet right of the usual Start to Naked and the Dead. Top Out at the Anchors or continue the route in the Corner.
Protection
I used a Lowe Ball #2 just of the deck. From there use 3 Purple Metolious Cams, 1 Gray and 1 Red Towards the Top.
