Details
Buildering is a dangerous and illegal activity that can result in serious injury and/or death. The climbing featured in these area shouldn't be attempted unless you want jail time and hospital bills.
Description
Tons of cool problems abound here. Most are either long endurance traverses or short crimp moves on vertical wall. Use these as a small guide, but half the fun of the place is just looking for cool problems that you make up. Walk through on a weekday afternoon, and students walking to and from class share the same space as people clinging to the walls. To be honest, we don't even know if it's legal to climb around here; however, we've never been busted and nobody we know has. Do NOT do problems involving stepping on knobs while traversing doorways. Boulderers have already broken one door handle in this fashion. The names for the routes here are contrived by us, and are not considered first ascents in any manner.
Getting There
From US36, head W. on Colorado to the giant concrete structure known as the E-center. It is on the Southwest corner of Colorado and Regent. The buildering is on the inside walls of the courtyard. Parking around here is difficult to find; most weekday afternoons require change. Watch out for the parking enforcers - they are vicious and show no mercy.
