5.6-5.10 multipitch sport climbing?
|
Does anyone know where there are any bolted sport climbs around 4+ pitches in length? |
|
there is people's choice 5.10d on highwire crag in clear creek canyon. |
|
the young and the rackless in boulder canyon is a decent moderate |
|
In Clear Creek Canyon you also have "People's Choice" and "Dueces Wild" at Highwire. With some supplementary gear you can do "Bihedral Arete" on the Bihedral in Boulder Canyon, 2 pitches. Also, in Clear Creek, there is "Ride the Snake" on Mission Wall. Check MP for route descriptions. |

El Potrero Chico has sport routes up to 20 pitches long, but that's going to be a road trip...
In Boulder Canyon, Tonnere Tower has a number of two-pitch sport routes: Toe the Line 10b, Total Eclipse 10a, and Stayin' Alive 10a. Also Buried Alive, a 3-pitch 10a sport route. |

a Great multipitch in clear creek is ride the snake 5.9 ish. Mabe's new clear creek book has it. it is on the mission wall. |

Warpaint in the West Stronghold (AZ) is 500 feet of beautiful sustained granite climbing. 5.10c is the rating. Super solid rock. Pitch 1 is 5.10c and 150 feet long, with nothing easier than 5.10a. P2 5.8 P3 5.10a P4 5.10a P5 is 5.9 or so. A truly great climb. Also, Wiley Javalina in Mendoza Canyon AZ is 800 of 5.9 granite...plenty of chickenheads. You can make this a sport climb if you run things out a bit. Nice rock, too. Rap Warpaint. Bring the two smallest tricams to pro 'pussy' pockets on the third pitch of Warpaint. |

splatte, nuff said |
|
there's no sport climbing allowed in the splatte, except 11-mile & devils; everything else is protected slabs, if that. |
|
Ride the Snake in CCC is not fully a sport climb ... without trad protection you will be looking at some (un)healthy runouts. |
|
Casey, |
|
the bihedral or upper dream canyon have some of my favs, if you're in boulder |
|
Kevin, |
|
looks fun |
|
Remember, Blob Rock (Young & Rackless) is currently closed for birds. |
|
Tanner Dome near Canon City has some great multipitch sport routes. Newlin Creek near Florence has a few as well. |
|
Lost Angel in Upper Dream Canyon is cool. If you get on Hunky Monkey, you can do just P1 and 2, then skip over to the second pitch anchors of Divination Direct, and finish its awesome roof to make a 4 pitch .10d route.
But I recommend getting into trad. It is the shiznit. If you have a desire for multipitch routes, you'll end up loving trad in the end. |

Mark Nelson wrote: multi-pitch protected slab climbing, no??Well, correct. I think it is just a matter of semantics. It isn't typical splatte friction slabs as there are actually holds and more shiny metal things. I assume you have been there, correct? |
|
Royal Flush on Mount Royal in Frisco is fun - about 8 pitches of moderate sport climbing with some scrambles between pitches. |
