Description Suggest change

An Omage to Colorado’s Rifle. An old Thurmond area that has some seriously steep terrain. A few bolt lines are all that’s left visible. Evidence shows there used to be 12 routes established at one time.

This area has potential but is extremely off limits. Maybe purchase the property if you're interested. 

Getting There Suggest change

Bluff Road South of Columbia Illinois. Look for the waterfall pouring out of the side of the bluff
