Description Suggest change

The Snowy Range stretches from Cameron Pass and the Rawahs in Colorado, all the way north to Elk Mountain in Wyoming. It's a mix of rock types, but gets its name from the bone white quartzite visible on the western slopes of the range. There's (established) sport, trad, bouldering, and alpine areas, with some spotty reports of ice climbing as well.

Getting There Suggest change

Because of its size, there is no one way to get there. Driving directions will be contained within each sub area.
