12 Gauge Rain

5.10+, Trad, Sport, 90 ft (27 m),  Avg: 2 from 6 votes
FA: Stebbins, Roling, Signori
Colorado > Morrison/Evergr… > Juniper Pass > Amphitheater Area

Description

The name comes from the fellows who decided to shoot trap over our heads from the top of the cliff while we were establishing this line.

To the right and around the corner from Liken I is a short overhang with jugs. 12 Gauge Rain fires up through this overhang to a bolt and continues on above with gear and bolts protecting you along the way. An optional 1.5 inch cam protects the moves to the first bolt.

Finish on the Liken I anchors. There is a random bolt placed next to a perfect gear placement up high on the route. Skip this bolt and place gear.

Location

This is around the corner to the right of the amphitheater. The short, overhanging start is obvious, look for a bolt about 12 feet up.

Protection

6 bolts and pro to 3 inches.

[Hide Comment] This route could benefit from some traffic and a wire brush, but it’s really a great route that protects well! Aug 21, 2022
