Access Issue: Reservation & Fee Details

Enter before 7am, or explain you're a climber and you won't park at any nice parking lots. Otherwise, a reservation is required to drive up Mount Blue Sky Scenic Byway. You pick a 2-hour window for entry, and pay $22 (2026). You can enter anytime during that period, and stay as long as you want. recreation.gov/timed-entry/…
It's free to access any area by hiking instead of driving. That includes hiking from Echo Lake Park to Roadside, Gateway, Area A, Possibility, and everything around there. It also includes Hell's Hole and other areas.

Description

This route has a memorable crux. The fang of rock at the midpoint of the route makes for some interesting climbing moves. Solid crack climbing follows from #1s to #4s and back to thin. It is very enjoyable.

Style note: the route was inspected on rappel to clean off dangerous loose blocks. First climbed as a TR. Led it a few weeks later.

Location

4th crack system from the left side of the crag. Look for a tooth-shaped rock halfway up. There are fixed gear rappel stations to the left and to the right.
