Description 

This is the biggest rock of this collection of small rocks which constitute Chair Rocks. It has a dozen & a half routes or so. Most of these are on the south and east faces; however, there are routes on all sides of this rock.


Getting There 

This is the larger crag in the middle of the Chair Rock formations. It is just east of Spoof Rock and NE of The Slabbo. In the old days you could park just short of these rocks near a fence. Then, you'd hike 0.5 mi north and drop down into these rocks.

Destination Unknown 5.9  CO : South Platte : ... : Chair Rock
This is a short, 2 pitch route on the east face. Scramble up a gully between The Chair and The Knight. Go up a wide crack on the left (just left of Blues for Allah & just right of a line of 6 bolts) that narrows up to a ledge. Fire up past 3 bolts to a sling belay, back it up with a #2.5 Friend. Go through a slot, then boulder up, past 3 old bolts, lieback to a squeeze chimney. There are some old 1/4" bolts to the right of the chimney. Rap 80' off the back off bolts....[more]   Browse More Classics in CO
