Let’s get high…off the ground!

Multi-pitch climbing is an exhilarating and challenging form of rock climbing that involves ascending routes longer than a single rope length, typically ranging from two to dozens of pitches. This type of climb gives you the unique opportunity to get high off the ground and see some of the most beautiful areas from a new vantage point.

Got a specific climb on your tick list that you want to check off but is perhaps a bit above your paygrade? Have you been too busy at work to keep up on all your multi-pitch safety skills? Want to enjoy the best aspects of multi pitch climbing without worrying about the logistics, work, and risk management? Want to just have an all-around enjoyable day out climbing? This program is for you! I can even accommodate you and your best friend/partner together!

Here are a few of my favorites multi pitch climbs in the areas that I operate most often:

Epinephrine, Red Rocks: 1,700 feet (13 pitches) of 5.9 Chimneying, Jamming, and All-Around Great Climbing

Levitation 29, Red Rocks: 700 feet (9 pitches) of uber classic red rock face climbing up to 5.11c

First Flatiron, Boulder: 1000 Feet (10 pitches) moderate slabbing up to 5.7 with incredible summit views of Boulder, Denver, Rocky Mountain National Park, and Longs Peak

Rewritten, Eldorado Canyon: 6 pitches of face and crack climbing with one unforgettable traverse; comes complete with spectacular summit views.

Cloaked Interpretation, Black Canyon: 1200 feet (8 pitches) Non-stop, high quality, enjoyable and engaging 5.10 face and crack climbing in an unforgettable setting 

These are just a few of my favorites; What’s on your ticklist!? Let’s get you to the summit!

“50 classics”

I offer several of Roper and Stecks “50 Classic climbs” but in my opinion, the 50 classic list is outdated and many of the routes that I will suggest yield a much more enjoyable day. No matter what we choose, I guarantee it will be an amazing time on the big stone.

A classic climb is classic for many reasons, but usually it is because they are the most fun and I bet you won’t be able to stop smiling all day long on any one of these routes.
