In April 2023 I was blessed to go on my first rock climbing trip to Red Rock Canyon in Las Vegas. We spent three days climbing some amazing and classic routes at Red Rock Canyon, which certainly lived up to its reputation as being one of the best climbing destinations in Nevada and the US.

At the end of Day 1 we were hiking back to our car when Ryan Wittich spotted Side Effects 5.10d (80ft, 24m), a huge boulder standing tall and proud on the Moderate Mecca wall (Lower Tier), and he knew he had to climb it.

The crux move of Side Effects 5.10d is getting over the roof at the 3rd bolt. Ryan attempted several different high heel hooks but ultimately couldn’t make the move which seems to be common with people’s reviews on Mountain Project. The remainder of the route has good jugs but the pump is real.

Watching Ryan climb this classic Red Rock Canyon route as the sun was setting in the background of Red Rock Canyon was absolutely magical. When he finished, Ryan called it the “The Cherry” on top of a perfect day of climbing. I couldn’t agree more.
