Matt Ebbing - last 20 feet of Freeway - some tricky, slabby, friction stuff. Fun route.

The route illuminated by headlamp. Climbers: Asa D., Kate S., and myself.

An historic ascent.

Sunrise on the 2nd.

Diving Board Tayne.

General directions for Freeway. There's a lot of options with how wide it is. Generally though, just stay going straight up until you notice a rightward direction as there's a gully to the left. Keep following that until you find the leap of faith. Click 'View full size' for the image, to make seeing any of the text possible.

A great view.

Making the leap while drinking a beer. Freeway - best happy hour spot in Boulder.

Puff on the first (known) feline ascent.

Catching some air on the infamous Freeway jump.

The JUMP.

Dayna showing how much more intimidating you can make it look if you shoot it right (in order to terrify family members...).

Slightly steep.

Just another day on Freeway: jumping off the diving board with a conga line behind ya, and someone leading ahead of ya with two single ropes rigged as twins with none of their sparsely placed pro extended.

Base of 2nd; looking up.

All ya really need, very fun route.

The jump section.

2nd sectors.

Looking up P2.

About 20 feet below the jump, which blends into the photo in the middle. The route continues straight up to the end of the rock then left and up on two more slabs to the hiking trail.

Taking a leap over Boulder.

The Jump from the South side.

Mario and friends free solo climbing the 2nd Flatiron of Flagstaff Mountain "Freeway".

Alternate double shoulder stand beta to the jump (sorry for the gratuitous butt shot).

This felt like the single hardest move here.

Brett belays Clove up the final pitch of Freeway.

Dan the man logging some air time on Freeway.

Looking back at the jump.

Below the jump on Freeway Ridge, looking north. Since you can't see this part of the rock from the bottom, I've included it as an indication of the rock up here. It does get smoother than this but still basically plentiful holds.

Trees of Love!

Sin City Action Team solos Freeway.

Leap of Faith.

A climber on Freeway Ridge about 100 feet below the jump. The rock where the climber is is less steep and has a bit more texture.

Looking up P3.

Fun route. Nice, easy climb.

Mom's first ever climb! -featuring Bec, Tay and my poor rope management skills.

The jump from Dodge Block.

Morning cruise up the second Flatiron.

Andrew Gram nearing the top of Freeway.

Here is the notch that you get to jump. Fun!

Midway up Freeway.

Enjoying the rock freeway.

"This looks sketchier than it actually is."

All smiles before getting serious on the Leap of Faith.

No religious affiliations needed for the Leap of Faith.

Sectors E & F.

The end of the Freeway, and last Roach Flatiron climb for George.

Another blurry pic of the jump move. Rob high over Boulder.
