Coliseum
About Coliseum:
Very Awesome area, Climb in the mornings and then rest and swim and climb in the evenings and watch the sun set over the lake very pretty setting. (following added by Leaverbiner) The Colusium is located to the left of the Army Corp. of Engineers' ladder. Pass Perot Wall (a.k.a Gun Wall) until you enter a large ampitheatre. The protection from the elements makes this a very popular place to escape the often inclement weather. (Routes listed Left to Right.) (Spelling of "Coliseum" corrected, Unabonger, 10/22/05) |
