A burly route. Hard moves right off the ground lead you into a steep rail feature. Tenuous positions through here finish with a dynamic move to a few jugs and a resting zone. Don't let down your guard quite yet... two unique and challenging sections are between you and the chains.

Swamp Thing

Mud Butt

Crocodillo

Snake Oil

Brown Sugar

Passan Temba

Tangled up in Blue

Sherpa James

Brown Thing

Alligator Skin

Shelter from the Storm

Heart of Glass

Swamp Monkey

The Gantry

Simple Twist of Fate

The most continuous of the three 5.10s in this area. Work through the pumpy bulge to a good rest, then climb to a slab finish.

Scramble up a shallow chert ramp to good holds on the bulging grey face, then thinner holds near the anchors. A good warm up for the nearby 10d and 11b routes.

Of the 3 climbs in this section, this is probably the lowest quality.   The rock quality is fine, there's just nothing very unique about the movement.   It does the job for a warm up.

"Our mission is to protect access to climbing in Southern Nevada by encouraging responsible stewardship and community involvement among local climbers."
