Featured Route For Phat City

Treeline 5.11a  CO : Independence Pass : ... : Phat City
Delicate starting sequence. Staying in the direct line (not trending left of bolt line) is way more fun!, leads to gear (mid size cam on an extendo sling) protected overlap at middle. Steep and fun/pumpy "headwall" finishes off the affair!...[more]   Browse More Classics in CO
