And for the record, My home ground of the lower Big Thompson is a lichen infested choss haven, yet I love to climb there just as you love your crags. I would swear, however, that the shop did advertize some guiding/climbing classes/ect, but I have been wrong before.

Location: CO : Steamboat Springs By: Dustin B When: Sep 29, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: As a "protective local" I feel the need to chime in.

First, the shop in question doesn't offer guide services. The only local guide is unaffiliated with that shop. Patrick at Rocky Mtn. Ventures is the guide and runs an excellent service and has worked very hard to try and build a good business. So, no, the condition ... more >>

Location: CO : Steamboat Springs By: allen simons When: Sep 28, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: Went into the local climbing shop hoping to contribute to the local economy and hoping to get a guide book of some sort to the area. Steamboat is a beautiful area, town, and the thought of camping and climbing there sometime seemed appealing. The climbing shop was a disaster. Very unorganized, discheveled, unclean place. When I asked the shopkeeper about a local guidebook she said there wasn't one at the store, maybe another store (not to be mentioned) would have a copy of the old pink guide. ... more >>

Location: CO : Steamboat Springs : Butcher Knife : Butcher Knife Crack (5.8+) By: SeanKuus When: Sep 3, 2009 | view comment >> | Comments: A set of bolts at the top make this top ropable. They're easily approached by a trail to the climber's left. Fun lead though and my favorite climb at Butcher Knife.
