Start on the nice positive black flakes which lead to a thin crimpy crux. The climbing eases up substantially after this involving moderate 5.7-5.8 crystally climbing to the anchors.

Mama, We All Go To Hell

Mother Superior

Nice climb starting on improbable flakes which lead to a cruxy (and reachy) mantle. Climbing eases briefly before encountering a tough slab move or two before the anchors.

Climbs a straight line of textured crystals. Early on, you pass through a reddish band of crappy rock before hitting a small roof. Big crystally features bring you up over the roof. Pass just right of a small tree and to up lower angle rock on the left side of a moderate crack.

This wall sits on the hillside across the river from the Poudre Park Day Use parking area. It is below Brink's Rock and faces South. Overall, the rock quality is pretty poor, but the crystal features make for some fun climbing. Expect to crumble off small feet and hands occasionally. The established routes have been extensively cleaned, and you don't have to worry about breaking anything big, although helmet would be a good idea for belayers. So far, all routes are bolted.
