Description Suggest change

This is not my route, but it is nicely marked on Mike R.'s 2018 West Colfax topo' photo. He rated it 5.9+. It is definitely not a slab route.

Perhaps the original ascensionist will share a name and history sometime. (And a few hours later, they did!)

Location Suggest change

Just right of the West Colfax slab route, in a right-facing corner, and uses the P1 WC anchors. You can start on the ground, a little right of West Colfax, or walk around to the base from farther right on a ledge. Rap the route.

Protection Suggest change

A standard rack, 2 bolts, and shared anchors. (I used 0.2-3 cams and a few nuts.)

Rap the route. (My 70m easily hit the ground.)
