Access Issue: Technically not an access issue, but rock knocked off the east face can descent quickly to the highway. Details

Safety details: rocks knocked or dropped off the east face can easily roll to the highway. In the summer, road bikers are occasionally on the pavement, so in consideration of those on the highway, have someone in your party get the rocks-breakage off the highway quickly.

Description

The Willow Creek Pass Fin [99 Mile Rock] is the fin-shaped outcrop of rock about 3/4 miles southward from Willow Creek Pass towards Granby on CO Highway 125. The foliated metamorphic (per Patrick Deegan) rock appears to be the emergence of two types of volcanic rock? The south face of this fin offers some slightly overhanging sport routes of more than 100' in length. About 3 miles downstream toward Granby north of the highway are more fins of similar character, but they are somewhat shorter.

Getting There

Take Highway 125 about 22 miles north of Granby, and find the Willow Creek Pass fin on your right with parking on the gravel road that begins on the left side of the low end of the rock outcrop.
