Access Issue: Area Closed Details

Per Melvin Glerup who is one of the landowners in the area: this Pinecliffe area is closed, since it is on private property.

Wonderland is on public lands but involves a tedious approach for legal access which is not through Pinecliffe.

Description

This is the location of about 20 routes, mostly mentioned in the ?? guide by Peter Hubbel. This granite crag is located perhaps a quarter-mile East of the parking area, adjacent to the railroad tracks, near the town of Pinecliffe. The routes face various directions. Find trad, sport, and mixed climbs here.

Getting There

From CO Hwy 72 & CO Hwy 93, head West up Coal Creek Canyon (CO Hwy 72) to the town of Pinecliffe. Turn right. Find a legal parking spot. Walk along the railroad tracks East to the crag about 1/4 mile. Beware, hiking along the tracks may not be welcome. Climb.
