Coco Crag is a climbing area on Bureau of Land Management land within the Red Rock/Sloan Field Office in Nevada. It sits among a cluster of other climbing spots, so it works well as one stop in a day of exploring the surrounding crags. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show April highs around 70°F and October highs around 75°F, while July and August average in the mid-90s. Red Springs Rock, Red Springs Rock Lower Tier (also known as Jabba the Hutt Rock) and Dante's Wall all lie about 0.1 mile away. The Calico Basin Trail is about half a mile off, and Red Rock Canyon Campground is roughly 2.4 miles away.
