Paradise Lost at the Red Devil, Flatirons Here's a quality, well-protected moderate route at a popular area - but this route is so rarely done it isn't even on MP. If you look closely you can see the rap ropes hanging from the p2 anchor: A hint: this route is 2-3 pitches (most do not climb the last short pitch), and below one of the most popular multi-pitch routes in North America. |

Greg Barneswrote: You’re right about the pictured leader. Our rope is toproping the last of our four on Super-spreader, after I led it. Edit: Paradise Lost and Super-spreader are on the Red Devil, Central Flatirons. It’s up the trail to the north from Mallory Cave. Mr Gordonifer is in Frenchman’s Coulee, Vantage, Washington. OZ is in Tuolumne. |
