Access Issue: Titanic reopens! South Hardscrabble Creek is too.
Details
Per Ben Bruestle: Titanic is open to climbing again. South Hardscrabble Creek climbing is open too.
Description
Pitch 1: the 5.7 crux move is getting off the ground -- up a six foot vertical slab with good holds for hands. After this steep start and clipping the first bolt above, the rest of the 1st pitch is mostly 5.5ish -- fairly low angle, and mostly big holds to the anchors. It's a little runout, but the climbing is easy. There are about 6 bolts to the anchors.
Pitch 2: this is an easy, short pitch, straight up, with mostly slabbly climbing on fairly low angle rock for another 60 feet. There are about 5 bolts to the anchors. It starts out at about 5.6 and gets easier the higher you climb.
Descent: rappel the route in two rappels from the top.
You could easily combine the two pitches into a single long pitch of about 150 feet.

Location
I highly recommend Stewart Green's "Rock Climbing Colorado, 2nd edition" guidebook for a great description of the routes in the Tanner Dome area and throughout Colorado!
On Tanner Dome, this route is the farthest right of the moderates (#6 in the photo). It's about 30 feet right and up the hill from "Amp Right."
