Blowjob Rock is a climbing area in the Red Rock Ranger District of Coconino National Forest in northern Arizona, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among several other climbing areas and trails within a short distance, including East Twin Butte and Upper Religion Wall, and it makes an easy addition to a day spent exploring the district's rock and trails. The area has six traditional routes, with grades ranging from 5.8 to 5.11-. The most straightforward is Deepthroat, a 5.8, and the hardest is Direct South Chimney at 5.11-. The Cold Shower, at 5.10+, is a bit harder. All are traditional, so you'll need to bring your own gear. Spring and fall are the most comfortable seasons to climb here. Typical averages from the nearby Oak Creek Canyon weather station show highs around 70°F in April and 74°F in October, while July highs reach about 90°F. Chavez Crossing campground is about 1.4 miles away, and Crescent Moon Ramada is about 2.8 miles off. For more time on the water, Oak Creek is roughly 8.3 miles away.
