Location: CO : Boulder : Flatirons : North : First Flatiron : Direct Route (5.6 R) By: frank When: Nov 25, 2003	view comment >>
Comments: I'm planning my next visit to CO and have been hearing the song of the Flatirons for sometime now. Last summer, as I was passing through, I was surprised at how hot it was and it seemed like we would just cook on the slabs so we ended up climbing in Eldo instead (big fun!). I know it's hard to pinpoint, but what would you (anybody) call the 'season' for this climb? I'm assuming weekdays are less crowded? Any wildlife closures or other special conditions to consider? Thanks!~f
Location: CO : Fort Collins : Poudre Canyon By: frank When: Nov 30, 2002	view comment >>
Comments: Hewlitt Gulch Boulder developed after fire, hike in 10-15 min., get to old mason foundation, look west uphill, black pod-like boulder, south side warmups, SE corner good with fun finish (beware of block leading to mantel) and east face with fun to hard, some light-cleaning might help finishes. sporty crag in sight uphill and left. Cams for anchor, 5.10-.12 TRs, fun but short-tread lightly.
