From CDOT: Colorado Highway 7 is closed daily from MP 23-29.5. Motorists can only travel through the area between 6-8 am and 4-7 pm. During these timeframes, pilot cars will lead alternating one-way travel. Drivers should plan for delays, and this schedule will remain in place through Memorial Day 2022.
During the closure, motorists need to take US 36 to CO 7.

Description
Below the diagonal, left-leaning (LL) crack, go up 15' in a weakness with gear, then traverse right to gain LL crack, and follow it under & past bulge. At a wide pod of crack, place #3 Camalot, and break right & over bulge, then run-it-out on moderate rock to the ledge below the tongue with bolts.
Continue up namesake tongue with a few tricky moves to rappel station.
Location
20' right of Parade of Fools, we traversed in from left to gain the crack on Hidden Pleasures.
One No-Trump starts further right 20' along the margin of the cliff.
