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 thin seam with a tough start to a break at 15'. From the break, climb a bit left.

For those with steel balls, break out the pads, and get down to some old school V5 highballing.

Location

Left of Cinch, find the finger crack that hits a horizontal break 15' up.

Protection

Small cams and nuts. Due to the soft nature of the rock at North Quarry, it's advised to bring a few bouldering pads for the start even if you're leading it. Cams have been known to blow out on falls at the lower crux.
