Description 

Climbing similar to Liberty Cap (on same cliff band). Many quality crack climbs of various grades available. Around 10-15 climbs.


Getting There 

Drive west out of Grand Junction on Broadway (CO Highway 340) into the Redlands. Drive approximately 3 miles turning left (south) onto Redlands Parkway. After 0.5 mile the road curves right (east) and becomes South Broadway at South Camp Road. Continue west on South Broadway until it makes a left hand turn (past the Tiara Rado Golf Course, the road weaves and turns for a while). Go down S. Broadway then take a left on Tiara Dr. Follow the road until it weaves close to cliff band. Park in front of drainage beside a 15 Ft long cement curb. Hike Drainage until you go under fence/iron bars. Walk until you intersect a trail and take a right. Follow until there is a weakness/gully of rotten Granite. Walk up that and the cliffs will be on the right hand of the U-shaped/ bowl of sandstone wall.

Not much information on First ascent or names or grades so I am just using my best guess.
