Where are the best places around Grand Junction for rock climbing next week? I need a partner on Friday the 18th to do Ottos or any other leading there, but am prepared to just go rope-soloing that morning. I have done some bouldering there, but prefer to hike in for some roped climbing in the Monument. Any ideas of some nice crags to do around Grand Junction? Let me know if you are available to go climbing.

I'm not in the area, but have climbed at Escalante and Unaweep canyons which are both fantastic spots.

Escalante - kindof a rough albeit short drive, but a large amount of excellent, pretty solid desert crack climbing

Unaweep - I only got a small sample of the climbing b/c we only did one route (Sweet Sunday Serenade, amazingly awesome) but it seemed like there is a shitload of beautiful climbing on pretty amazing looking granite.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
