This is a fragile alpine bouldering area and following Leave No Trace principles is important. Never stash pads. Do not alter landings, chip or glue holds, or remove or alter vegetation. Walk on hard surfaces such as boulders or established trails. Store your gear on boulders instead of dirt or vegetation. Clean up spilled chalk and tick marks and brush holds. Keep your presence low key and unobtrusive. Pack out everything you brought and anything else that shouldn't have been left there. RMNP rangers are very aware of the impact that bouldering has on this environment.
Tcamillieri at the crux on Riddles in the Dark. P...
Description
Riddles in the Dark begins on the undercling halfway through the roof. Easier to do when the snow is high. The crux is crossing through to a crimp and then bumping to the "jug."
Two stars for good movement and interesting holds. Loses stars for landing and overall aesthetic.
I will decline positing beta for this route, since I believe that everyone does this route differently based on their height. Expect toe and heel hooking.
Location
Starts on the undercling, moves left after gaining the crux jug.
