Description Suggest change

The Fallen Rock climbs face West and have shade till noon. The Astro Bunny area faces South and East.

Getting There Suggest change

Drive 15 minutes past East entrance and park at the upper Ute Canyon Trail head. Hike 15 minutes down the trail, walk another 1/2 mile on the canyon floor. Climbs will appear on your left. Astro Bunny area has a separate approach.

To Access Safeway Spire and Walmart Tower:

Drive west out of Grand Junction on Broadway (CO 340) into the Redlands. Drive approximately 3 miles turning left (south) onto Redlands Parkway. After 0.5 mile, the road curves right (east) and becomes South Broadway at South Camp Road. Continue west on South Broadway for approximately 0.5 mile to Wildwood Drive, turning left at the Liberty Cap Trailhead Sign and parking lot on the right. A 30-40 minute hike, level at first then steep, will bring you to a sign reading "to Rim Rock Drive - Liberty Cap Trail (right) Ute Canyon Trail (left)". Take Ute Canyon, follow it until the buttress is on the left, look for a path that leads up the cliff face. (Courtesy of Desert Rock III, Eric Bjornstad.) Per Jonathan S: the trailhead is now called "Wildwood Trailhead" and is there on Wildwood Dr.
