Friends visit Colorado - June 2018

Here is a video of a few of the boulders my friends climbed while on their trip to Colorado back in June 2018. They came from Miami Florida, Washington D.C and Columbus Ohio to sample some Colorado's best alpine bouldering areas.

Lincoln Lake, Guanella Pass, Rocky Mountain National Park are the three main areas we climbed in. While in Rocky Mountain National Park we visited Emerald Lake and Lower Chaos Canyon. All these areas have amazing moderate classic lines that are must-do's for anyone traveling to Colorado. Linlcoln Lkae has one of the harder hikes, but is one of the most beautiful places to climb. Guanella Pass is basically roadside and provides climbs from V0-V13 so there is something for everyone. RMNP has endless bouldering climbs and areas which makes it a great spot to visit. Hikes there range from 30 mins to 2 hours + so there is an area for anyone.
