Does anyone know if the top of Coliseum Crag in Lyons has a walk off from the top? Interested in doing some TRS on the crack routes.

i am not 100% positive, but i think we walked off to the west when we did gladiator. i could be on drugs though.  it was a really long time ago.  i think one way or another you can find a way to the top.

I don’t think so…. Most are two pitches (or one long pitch) and getting to the first set of anchors does not look possible without climbing the routes.  Unless you have a 100 meter rope you aren’t toproping from the top

Pretty sure I walked off Unleash the Lions, most of the other routes required rapping off.

Gotcha, thanks so much for the all the info! Psyched to get out there regardless.

Sketchy loose terrain trying to walk off to the west. Better to lead the pitch if you can find a partner.

Nick, I’m planning a group climb at the Coliseum on Friday this week.  Welcome to join.  Looks like 3 of us so far.  I’ll lead to the first pitch anchors and setup a few topropes so folks can have fun.  This crag is only 10 minutes from my house and I love it…. Hoping to climb some of the harder climbs also but just happy to get out and climb….. it’s been almost a week :/

Hey Matt, that sounds like a ton of fun and I’d love to join! When are y’all thinking of getting out there and how long will you stay? Feel free to text me at 214-641-8253.
