About RMNP - Fern Canyon:
Fern Canyon is not well known or well-travelled, but it has some of the best and hardest traditional climbs in Rocky Mountain National Park. There are also a handful of excellent bolted routes. Notable climbs include the area classic 3-pitch Days Of Heaven (5.10d), which is on par with the best cragging routes anywhere. Another amazing climb is the Wasp, a thin but continous finger crack that overhangs slightly for nearly a hundred feet. |
