Anyone interested in sport climbing the 1st or 2nd pullouts of Red Rocks? Such as Black Corridor or Panty Wall? Have my own gear and climb at 5.9-5.10+. Will be doing a lot of Sierra classics solo before getting to Vegas.

Hey, with lows in the mid 80's, its sending temps!

Hot. Too hot for most. Early a.m. in the shade for an hour? Maybe. Ugh.

What's that they say?

"Sport climbing at Red Rocks is like masturbating on your honeymoon."

I was working in the area during the summer a few years ago and went a couple of times. Really not too bad except during mid-day. (The Black Corridor only gets sun for a few hours.) There are Meetup groups that have been going a lot lately but so far haven't had any responses.
