About Cathedral Spires:

The Cathedral Spires is certainly the most obvious and maybe the best area in the South Platte. Cynical Pinnacle hosts what are often refered to as the finest 5.9 and 5.11 in the state, and a burly aid climb. Poe Buttress is one of the premier hardman crags in the Platte, and basically everything here is good.

Nearest town or city:	Pine
Directions:	Head south from Pine, and turn left onto the Foxton Road(dirt). Cynical Pinnacle will be the spectacular spire on the hillside above the left side of the road. Park at a pullout almost directly below the spires.
