Climbing and Casinos - Vegas and Red Rocks

by firechick - last update: Mar 10, 2003

Dark Shadows

Gaetan and Jack on Dark Shadows
Dark Shadows is a mult-pitch climb in Red Rocks. It's a gear climb, and stays in the shade even during hot weather - great for late spring climing excursions. Excellent rock quality, exposure and fun!

My husband, brother and our friend climbed this in June in 90+ F degree heat, and felt great on it - also gets a good breeze.

Walk in is about 35-45 minutes.

This Vegas Page is under construction!!! More entries to come, but will take a bit of time.

Pros:"Amazing rock climbing and amazing eye candy"
Cons:"Hot and obviously lots of tourists"
In A Nutshell:"Disney land for adults"

 Yes, I agree with you. The Paris Buffet is my number one pick for best food at the price in Vegas. We like to go for late breakfast.Excellent. The line is long, but be patient!

 Awesome, I climbed Dark Shadows when I was there too, such a great climb. Did you go all the way up, or stop at the roof?
