Description 

This is the most easily accessed crag in 10-Mile Canyon. The rock quality is superb, and there are some high quality routes to be climbed! Its southern exposure offers excellent opportunity to climb in the spring, summer, and fall (unless choked with snow...). There are many facets and many different variations to climb. There are mostly low-angled moderates, but there are also a few steep climbs too....


Getting There 

Driving west on I-70, 1/4 mile past the "Main Street" exit at Frisco, Sunshine Dome is the 1st major crag just above the highway. Pull off the highway and park in the tall grass just below the Dome. Sunshine Dome sits down and left of the Witchita Wall. A quick 1-2 minute approach up the trail brings you to the base.

I've climbed 7 different routes at the Sunshine Dome. There was a detailed description of this wall in the old Summit County climbing guide. I don't know all the specifics on 1st ascents and ascentionists, but I'll try to post the details that I know when I have more time.... Gotta put the baby down for a nap....
