Comments: Bolts or gear, the buried alive link is a blast. Nice work guys! Look forward to going back for more on Tonnere.

Comments: 11c sustained climbing, minus a subtle rest after the first crux. May feel easier to folks with smaller hands, i.e. the undercling seam is a "jug" instead of a one knuckle crimp. Ain't no way it's 11a :). Great climb all editorials aside. -KT


Location: CO : Boulder : Boulder Canyon : Animal World : Joint Venture (5.11a)

Comments: Fun route with a thin start and some good steming on the upper "pitch". Easily done as one pitch with a 60m and minor rope drag. Nice climb.


Location: CO : Boulder : Boulder Canyon : Avalon : First Tier : Body Count (5.11a)
By: Kyle Turner When: Oct 16, 2006

Comments: This climb is thin and balancy to start, but really well protected. I'd say its got a couple of 11a/b moves in the middle but the top is 9+. Another solid climb at Avalon.

Comments: GREAT route! Sustained, well-protected, and fun to climb. Clean, somewhat-overhanging fall lines make this a great route for the aspiring 10+ leader. -KT

Comments: I'd give the *crux* of this route a 10c rating when compared to other routes in the canyon. The top and bottom of the route seemed easier... all in all this a great route with solid moves on positive holds. Good route for the aspiring 10+ leader.

Comments: Great route, very sustained., thanks for the development, Eiger is one of my favorites in CCC. Quick piece of beta, the mini roof about 3/4 the way up can be some what simplified if you move right a bit. Took me a couple of tries to figure it out. Really like the spacing of the bolts, far enough a part to keep it spicy, close enough to be safe.

Comments: Fun route with a challenging left handed pinch before the overhang for a .10 leader. Highly recomended.

Location: CO : Denver South : Castlewood Canyon : Bouldering : Rocket Ship (V1+)

Comments: Directly to the left of rockship are some fun over hanging problems. The one on the outside edge of the over hang I would guess at V1-2, the tough egdes futher under proabably go V3-5. There is also a juggy over hanging problem on the right side of this formation that is V0-1 and a couple of slopey traverses on the south side of the formation as well.

Comments: Fun route, has some good moves but starts a bit slabby. Agree going left early will make things interesting trying to clip the bolt on the otherside of the arete, makes for an interesting rock over.


Location: CO : Golden : Clear Creek Canyon : The Catslab : Skimbleshanks (5.8)

Comments: Long slabby climb with some good positive holds on the way up. Be careful pulling on the quartz. Good ledge on the left of the anchors to rig the rappel. Use two ropes.


Location: CO : Golden : Clear Creek Canyon : High Wire Crag : 5th of July (5.9+)
By: Kyle Turner When: Apr 16, 2004

Comments: First move is a bit bouldery, be safe and clip the first bolt from the rock to the right. This is a fun route with good starting move. Run up it if you're at highwire.


Location: CO : Golden : Clear Creek Canyon : High Wire Crag : Poker Face (5.9)

Comments: Commiting first move gives this route a 5.9 rating in most guide books, but after the first clip its hard to say its much more than a 5.7. Get the first move wired and this becomes a mellow warm up, worth a lap prior to moving on to harder routes.
