moving to colorado springs in 3 days.

got any suggestions for bolted overhung juggy climbs 5.8-11+ and vertical crimpy face climbs same grades?

no slab, short approach and dog friendly would be nice too!

I hope you are bringing Saathi to this dream crag. Following because I too would like to find a short approach over hanging crag in the area!

Check out Devils Head - crimpfest, red wall, chickenhead ranch, etc. For juggy overhang maybe consider thunder ridge. If you’re willing to drive a bit, there’s no shortage of climbs that meet your criteria in Clear Creek/Bocan. Shelf road also would meet criteria if you’re willing to head south - devils head season will come to a close soon so get its while it’s good. Shelf is delightful in the winter.

Shelf road mid winter is one of the best vertical crags in the state. And will be one of the closest large climbing area to you
