The Puoux (and Super Puoux) is on the "Defiance Cave Preserve". All climbers must first download, complete and submit the climbing waiver to Ken Headrick, the property manager, by email attachment. The manager will acknowledge receipt of the waiver. You do not need to schedule a day or time when submitting your waivers. For more information go to coloradowesternslopegrotto.…

From the land owner: I am Michael Frazier owner of the Puoux climbing area. A few things I need to clarify. We want Everyone to feel welcome. We are asking everyone to fill out waivers for two reasons. The first is obvious. To cover our behinds. The second reason is to help us keep Interstate access open by showing C Dot historical access. I would like to see the waiver forms posted on this page. The other thing I would like to address is that we would like to be notified of any modifications of trails , platforms, and routes before they have began. Under no circumstances do we want rock chipping for hold placement. If you can't climb it as it is please choose another climb that is easier or improve your technique. One more thing. We have never issued trespassing tickets and I would like that taken off the description at the top of this page.

Description
Start with a difficult set of moves at the first three bolts before the grade eases up. Sustained climbing that is often devious and technical continues to the anchors with mostly great rock throughout.
Location
On the far left side of the Upper Tier, just before the Fault Wall. Identified as route 33 in Richard Wright's photo. Scramble up ledges before passing the pine tree and turning the corner to the Fault Wall. Set up belay on top of an airy little perch with a threaded hole. Route has gold cold shuts and is just left of a route with shiny, unpainted hangers.
