While driving up Guanella Pass from Georgetown last weekend, I saw a large wall off to the left from the summit area. Looks like it could hold some routes, maybe up to 400'. Anyone know anything about it?

Me and a friend of mine have put up one route. I don't believe it has seen much more development. Lots of high quality alpine choss.

I spell my name as Haas, but no worries. Our route was approached as for the bouldering at Mt. Evans near Echo Lake, not on the Guanella Pass side. The "Hand Crack My Haas" reference came from Tony because sometimes people think my name sounds like "ass" instead of a short "a" sound. That and the "hand crack" I viewed while bouldering turned out to be a Big Bro sized roof. Tony wasn't psyched if I remember correctly. Oops. :) Double pun I suppose. I'll add the route when I get a chance, otherwise just email me and I'll give you what details I remember of the route. Cheers,

Jason

Sorry about the spelling Jason, for some reason there was a post in the mt. evans area that made it sound like your route was over on the guanella pass side. Guess I was mistaken, I remember talking to you about that route what 2 summers ago? didn't realize it was an OW monster, sounds cool.
