Thrice Commitments

V4 PG13, Boulder, 25 ft (8 m),  Avg: 2.7 from 6 votes
FA: unknown
Colorado > Colorado Springs > Ute Valley Park > S Side Area > Main Wall
Warning Access Issue: Reopened after flood damage! DetailsDrop down

Description

This sweet problem goes up the bulge to the right of the big triangular wall. Start out on an undercling, then bust some big moves to a horn at about 17 feet. Now the fun part: high step and get established on the slab. I would recommend not falling from here.

Location

This is across from the southeast side of the main boulder.

Protection

Lots of pads and spotters.

[Hide Comment] Sorry to sandbag you, but I don't think it's a V4. Maybe a V2 at the most, but I could be doing a different line. Do you top out, Jeremy? Sep 3, 2009
[Hide Comment] Most def. top out one is pussing out right which I have done mannyyy times, because top two follows the arete to the top using that cracked horn, but yeah I would agree more w/ locs' grade. Sep 4, 2009

[Hide Comment] Worked on this today and not sure if I was using the right beta but definitely felt harder than V2 and maybe harder than V4. Loc likes to downgrade things that he's never sent. Didn't have a spotter so wasn't comfortable dynoing for the horn, then the rain came. It's a little chossy, but has fantastic movement...I'd honestly say V5. Aug 7, 2010
[Hide Comment] The Scare factor is ridc on this being that it's so muddy. When I got the FA, I had like 5 pads and three spots, so that def affected the send, and esp now that is has broken so many times the problem is completely different than when I did it. That is for sure. Jun 9, 2011
[Hide Comment] I was a bit confused as to what you're "supposed" to do. Here is a video of what I found and did in this area. Really fun movement. I think I was more right, but the line felt very natural:
