Roadside gems in Rocky Mountain National Park

in climbing •  7 years ago  (edited)

This is one of the many sub roadside classic boulder problems in Rocky Mountain National Park (R.M.N.P) called Stink Bug V10. This boulder was first climbed by the legendary Tommy Caldwell years ago. Its always fun climbing boulders established by your heros. I was lucky enough to get up this beautiful rock earlier this year and it instantly became one of my favorite boulders I've ever done.

This boulder has a very difficult first move which was the crux (hardest single move). After doing that you continue through a series of decent holds on a very steep wall. Powerful moves lead out of the overhang and get you to a rounded top out. Super cool!! ☺☺☺

This is such a fun boulder and I highly recommend it if you are ever in the area.

That really does look like a fun one. If only I could climb V10! But I'm really not into trying that hard... (:
