Other Rose Dome Rock Climbing

This area has newer routes on a feldspar quartz dome close to Forest Road 100 (Buffalo Park Road). These are mostly sport routes with a few trad, sport, and mixed lines waiting for first ascents. All routes crimp, pinch, or stem their way up quartz nubbins, with the occasional dark inclusion or light colored intrusion. As with all new routes on this type of rock, watch for the random nubbin popping off. Be aware that this dome, as well as the main Rose Dome, sit in a burned-out forest... trees sometimes topple during periods of high winds. There are trails developing on either side of the dome. East side trail will take you all the way down to "Piggly Wiggly". West side trail wanders around the dome and dwindles down after "Climbing Trees". Persevere and log hop to get to the rightmost three routes.
