Comedy Crag Right is a sport climbing area on Bureau of Land Management land in Nevada, within the Red Rock/Sloan Field Office. It sits about a tenth of a mile from Comedy Crags and is part of a cluster of climbing areas in the Red Rock Canyon region. The crag has eight sport routes, with grades ranging from 5.9 to 5.11c. The most common grade is 5.10c, and the hardest routes are Happy Bubble and I'm Funny How, both at 5.11c. The names are as colorful as the climbing, with routes like The Most Powerful Clown and Obnoxiously Profound Route Name. 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. That station sits roughly 1,400 feet lower than the crag, so temperatures here run cooler. Comedy Crags is just 0.1 mile away, and Cactus Joes is 0.3 mile off. The Old Spanish Trail hike is 0.9 mile away, and Chocolate Rocks is 1.2 miles away.
