"The best steep sport climbing within easy reach of Abu Dhabi. Also has a fun boulder by the parking spot. The cliff is just inside Oman but reached from Al Ain town in the UAE via the Buraimi border crossing. See the Al Ain section of the "UAE Rock Climbing" (2009) http://www.cordee.co.uk/CCA395.php guidebook for detail. General UAE climbing info can also be found at www.redarmadapublishing.com " — The emperors of the dust
