Hey hi helloooo,
anyone know where I might find relatively flat sheets of rock, more vertical to the ground? Don’t know the exact terminology but anything that’s ground level and as wall-like as possible would be ideal. I’ve been scouting the BLM land around Saguache but haven’t found quite what I’m looking for.
Any leads or suggestions are greatly appreciated, thank you!
Anyone wanna refer me and my partner for ascent gym in FoCo? I am planning on joining soon (making the switch from whetstone) and figure a referral can help us all out. Send me a PM!
probably the Movement Baker for me, if anyone is looking for or taking new climbing friends!
Coming up with friends for STS9 at Red Rocks and staying tomorrow afternoon to Monday. Trying to see if I can get into something on Sunday sometime.
I used to do some TR in the gym but don't own a harness or anything other than shoes and a chalk bag. I'm used to just spending 60-90 minutes bouldering since I like 1) not being too high, 2) not being distracted with gear, and 3) being able to try lots of different things. I'm not against TR though.
I would call myself an advanced beginner.
Is there something I could get into there that would make sense near Golden? I saw Lookout Mountain Crag which is close but it's not clear to me how that works. Just show up and climb? I don't have a crash pad or anything and feel like I would spend forever just trying to figure out which climbs are where and what's the right skill level.
I see a bunch of 2-4 hour things online to hire a guide for like $250. Maybe that's worth it since I don't get this chance very often but curious to hear what y'all would say.
Thanks!
Does anybody know the names or area of the Clear Creek Tunnel 5 climbs that are basically right within the parking lot/maybe 20 yards onto the right side of the bike path?
They look easy and are bolted, but theres no trace of the names within MountainProject (that i can find)?
Thanks in advance!
Anyone been up there lately?
Howdy, what are you suggestions for the best crags with 11’s? (A-D)? I’ve looked at high wire and done some with Canal Zone but looking to see what you all enjoy.
Hi everyone,
I had a friend go camping/climbing out in the peak to peak highway area (maybe near camp dick area) and he was supposed to make it home last night and no one has heard from him. He would be driving a red Toyota Tacoma with a camper top license plate 608GCP. If anyone in Colorado is out climbing in that area this weekend please reach out. Thank you all, stay safe out there!
Hi climbing folks! Looking to go on a few day excursion to a nice crag that has some dispersed camping close by and I’m struggling to find a good spot. Anybody have some recommendations? Would love some pointers please!
Hey all, I'm traveling to Denver this week and thought it would be a good time to finally try outdoor climbing. I typically climb up to V6/7 in the gym.
What would be good spots to climb given it looks to be pretty hot? I will have a car. I'll be free this evening, tomorrow, and then Friday and Saturday next week. If anyone wants to meet up I'd love to do that!
I saw in other posts that I can rent crash pads from DBC. Is one usually enough?
Looking to knock out as many test pieces/classics as possible that are 5.11+ and 5.12a. Any suggestions would be great!
Interested in single and multi-pitch.
Does anyone have any favorite climbs in Big Thompson with a shorter approach (I.e. not the monastery or Palisade)?
I'm looking for a one stop shop crag for bouldering and sport in clear creek canyon this weekend. Any recommendations? I climb 5.10-5.12a and my buddy climbs 5.12+, but I wouldn't mind a softer crag. Thanks!
I'm planning on going camping in amphitheater campgrounds and wanna boulder but most of what I see in Ouray is big wall climbing. Any parks in the area with V0-3's?
I'm taking a trip to Estes park soon for some sport climbing and I was wondering if theres a good guidebook for the area or should I just use mountain project? I prefer having guidebooks because I like to collect them but I can't seem to find one for the area.
Hey yallllll I got room for rent coming available in April. Right across the street fr Golden City Brewery.
Its sweet. Special place. Over a hundred years old.
I’d love a roommate that lives the same lifestyle as I: climbing, backcountry skiing, fishing, mountain biking. You name it.
Posted on FB but the clientele there is lacking.
Hit me up if you wanna chat 🤙
I'm visiting Boulder in June on a solo trip, and would like to have one of the days free to go climbing outdoors (I live in the midwest and the outdoor scene is... dry). I don't have much experience climbing outdoors so I'd only be able to boulder or toprope on prebolted routes :') - and as it's a solo trip I'm not sure how to get out there. All the meetup groups seem more focused on indoor events, and there are some guided climbing tour packages out there but I don't want to pay for a single person tour since I don't mind going with randos.
Any tips/tricks on how to find some outdoor climbing w a group? I'll have a car so I can go pretty much wherever within driving distance.
I’m moving to Colorado for college next fall, and I wanted to know how Colorado Springs’ outdoor climbing scene weighs up to Boulder’s? It seems that it has a lot of mountain surrounding it but I haven’t really heard much about the community or quality of climbing.
We’re so excited to announce that ROCK'n & JAM'n 1 is now The Spot Thornton!

My friends were visiting Colorado from Long Island and when one of them asked my to store their watch in their bag before climbing Black Gold, I accidentally stored it in another climbers bag. The watch is a Garmen Fenix.
I hope you're okay. We obviously didn't trade information, but I've been worried since we helped carry you out. If you're on here or maybe know who I'm talking about, I can confirm your name and your friends name in a PM.
Hello ya'll,
31 m visiting Denver from NYC until the 20th. I have all the gear needed for sport climbing, just need a partner. You just need shoes and your own harness. I have a car, willing to drive anywhere in clear creek, boulder canyon, golden, or anywhere else that's within reason. Hit me up please, I wanna climb as much as possible while I'm here :)
