overhanging sport climbing?

i am moving to colorado soon, and i've grown to love the overhanging sport climbs at the red river gorge in kentucky. i have heard that this type of climbing is few and far between in colorado, besides at rifle.

does anyone know if there are any other overhanging sport areas?

thanks

Clear creek has some overhanging routes but nothing is going to compare to the Red. You will not find many juggy overhanging routes in Colorado. The geology of the Red is very unique and differs from the geology of Colorado. Typically the overhanging routes in Colorado are on the harder side, 12+ and up. Although Rifle is steep I don't think it compares to the Red. A couple walls might come close. The Arsenal and The Wicked Cave come to mind.

Clear Creek- New River Wall, Hipster, Dog House, Sex Cave, Wall of Justice and The Primo Wall

The Industrial wall near Eldo is steep.

There are a few routes on the back side of the Flatirons are steepish.

You will probably have to go to Maple Canyon in Utah to feel at home. 8hrs

You may want to fall in love with "steep slabs".

Sport climbing in the flatirons tends to be overhanging or at least not slabby. Usually on the back and sides of the formations, the highly visible east faces are definitely slabtastic.

Try: Dinosaur Mountain & The Slab (named for the front-side, the backside is overhung and awesome.)

+1 if you want steep rifle is the place to go.

I've been in Colorado for almost two years now and the one thing I REALLY, REALLY miss is the Red River Gorge. I haven't found anything that even comes close out here. Devils Head was fun but still not the red.

A few people have said that you can find over hanging buckets at Tensleep, WY.

Check out the Killer Cave. Rifle's got some jug-hauls too, but they're generally not super straightforward.

Finally, go climb Undertow in the Flatirons. DO IT NOW!!! Its a little slice of Kentucky.
