While most of the routes you'll find climbing Wall Street are sport routes, Wall Street has over 100 routes that are good for all levels of climbing. There is a great rock climbing wall just north of Moab on Highway 279. Jog Handle Arch: Located at the south end of Wall Street.

Good area to drive by to catch rock climbers in action. We did not see any given the time of day we went there (midday, when it was hot) but the vertical cliffs are a sight to behold in themselves. Do not miss the Petroglyph viewing site that is nearby.

There were many great places to climb of various difficulty, and there were some cool petroglyphs in some areas. The rocks get really hot in the sun, so if you want to climb, start in the morning.
