Route 158 is a climbing area in Nevada's Spring Mountains National Recreation Area, part of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. The Forest Service manages the surrounding land, and the area sits close to a cluster of trails, campsites and other climbing spots, with Robber's Roost and The Robbery Wall both within about half a mile. The climbing here is a mix of bouldering and sport routes. OpenBeta lists three routes, two of them boulders and one a sport climb. Grades run from V6 to V10 on the V scale and 5.11d on the YDS scale. The Subway Roof is a boulder at V6, and Ride the Bull is a boulder at V10. For timing, July is the warmest month, with typical highs around 79°F and lows near 52°F. That station sits about 1,000 feet lower than the climbing area, so temperatures up high run cooler. Winter is cold, with typical highs around 44°F and lows near 21°F. Nearby, Mahogany Grove campground is about 0.2 miles away, and the Link Trail and Robber's Roost Trail are each about half a mile off. The North Loop mountain biking trail is just 0.1 miles away.
