About this spot

Gateway Crag

The Gateway Crag in the Las Vegas Wash watershed is an excellent destination for those who love rock climbing. This crag is located just outside of Las Vegas and is known for its challenging routes that range from 5.10 to 5.13. The limestone formations make for a unique and exciting climbing experience. This area is also popular with hikers and bird watchers who come to enjoy the scenic views of the surrounding mountains and the wildlife that inhabits the area.

In addition to rock climbing, visitors to the Gateway Crag can also try their hand at bouldering, which involves climbing smaller boulders without ropes or harnesses. The area is also home to a variety of reptiles and birds, including rattlesnakes, gopher snakes, and red-tailed hawks. It is recommended that visitors exercise caution and respect the wildlife that lives in the area. Overall, the Gateway Crag is a great place to visit for those who love the outdoors and want to experience the unique beauty of the Las Vegas Wash watershed.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace

Know before you go
Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
Stay on trail
Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
Respect wildlife
Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
Pack it in, pack it out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you. Remote sites often have no trash service.
Leave what you find
Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
