New access to Allenspur climbing MORE INFO >>> June 2009 Update: There have been recent new developments in climbers access to Allenspur. For years the "Red Barn Antiques" property (now under new ownership) has been off-limits for use to approach the crags- all access has been via the Harper property easement. The current owners, however, are interested allowing climbers to hike to the crags via a more direct trail across the southern end of their property. The SMCC and the landowners have entered into a one-year trial period for SMCC Members and their guests to use this new approach. For more info and photos: www.montanaclimbers.org/access/allenspur This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Look for a small crystalline cave about 10 feet up, the route starts about 10 feet left of that. There are 2 cruxes, first is a small bulge just be fore a "v" shaped section, the second is about 4 (or so) clips form the top it gets steep there and the holds thin out a bit.

Location 

Depending on what guide book you have, it the first on the list or the 6th route. When approaching from the new access go past "Look Ma" and "Cold Feet". After the switch backs its the first route you come too.

Protection 

12 clips to chains. Very well bolted
