Description Suggest change

The Twilight Area is a large climbing area encompassing 4 sub-zones: Twilight Wall, Upper Midlife Wall, Sunnyvale, and Wild Wall.

This is a Fall/Winter/Spring area mostly depending on the river level. The most commonly used crossing lies just upstream of a famous 5th class rapid called White Line. So, if the crossing is questionable at all...it is probably best to find another crag.

Getting There Suggest change

The Twilight Area is located in the Narrows of the Poudre Canyon, approximately 19.5 miles from Ted's Place. Park in the Eden pull-out or in the same pull-out used for Snake Eyes Wall.
