Access Issue: Larimer County DNR Regulations Details

There is no legal hiking, bouldering or climbing in Horsetooth Reservoir Park "except in designated areas." See the 2024 Regulations here: online.flippingbook.com/vie…

Description

Climb the overhang of the Patriot Tower up into the arete. Move up on edges right of the arete and transition left on the face. Once you've successfully transitioned to the face move up on a right hand crimp on the face (left of the arete) and lunge to a deep seem on the far left side.

It is 5.12 when climbing straight up the face near the right arete.

You can bail out left at the top and completely skip the 5.12 crux, making it 5.11-.
