6 Hours | Our best entry level trip
Our best entry level trip. This day isn’t any harder than a 4 hour trip, but the extra 2 hours allow us the time to hike a little further. The 4 hour trip is so quick that we need to go to places with a very short hike in. The 6 Hour trip lets us hike further in, usually to Jurassic Park, a world-class venue with over 50 different climbs from super easy (5.5) to very challenging (5.12). The hike in takes about 40 minutes, but everyone agrees it was worth it. The cliffs sit on top of a small mountain on the edge of Rocky Mountain National Park with epic views in all directions.
If you have climbed in a gym before and are ready to make the move to climbing outdoors, this is the premier day, one you will never forget. Please contact us if you have any questions.
Please wear comfy clothes, sturdy hiking shoes/boots and bring a backpack each with: extra warm layers, 1+ liters of water each, food, sun gear (sunscreen, sunglasses, hat), and a camera.
