Black Awareness

5.11b/c, Sport, 60 ft (18 m),  Avg: 2.6 from 8 votes
FA: Dave Dangle, Darryl Roth
Colorado > Canon City > Shelf Rd > Dark Side

Description

This route is the black slab just to the right of the detached pillar with a bolted line right next to it. The first bolt on this route is a brown home job, with the next 5 being green and a coldshut before the anchors. The bolt spacing on this is a little more old school compared to some of the other Dark Side routes, but they are right where you want them. Start out carefully pulling on the loose flake at the start and heading up the usual technical Dark Side slab.

Location

This is the second route to the left of The Audition and the second route to the right of Call from Overseas is Black Awareness.

Protection

7 bolts and 2 coldshuts at the top.
