Be considerate MORE INFO >>>
Jazz Dome is located on Denver Water property. Reportedly Denver water has no objections to climbing on the rock; however, there is a small tract of private property near the south edge of the dome. Please be considerate and keep the noise levels down and the trash out.

Description It is a decent route. This could be a nice, low level, slab lead with new bolts. As is, it should be considered R/X. If top roping, be very careful of the loose rock during setup.
Location This route is in the upper half of the slab (see photo). It is better to rappel. To walk-off, head up through loose rock/gravel. Where possible, head right across the top of the slab then walk down.
Protection 3 bolts and tree anchor. The hangers are SMC. The bolts (1/4" buttonheads) are rusted and coming out.

| This is the hardest 5.6 I've ever done. If you blow the 1st clip, it will be an ankle buster. It is not a beginner route, and it is best to top rope it. |

| ^^^ It's "Best to top rope it"???... LOL!!!... "This is the hardest 5.6 I've ever done". Even a BIGGER, LOL!!!... ;-) |

| Nice new bolts and the cord around the tree was in good shape as of 4/28/13. I could see being a little intimidated by this route for new leaders not used to typical slab routes, it is pretty easy though. All 4 of the routes on this part of the wall felt pretty much the same difficulty once past the start. |
