Red Rocks - East Faces

An oasis of wilderness next to the craziness of Las Vegas, with splitter weather, relatively short approaches and great climbing at all grades, Red Rocks is probably one of the most fun places on the planet for climbers.

This two-tiered panorama, on par with the monsters of Squamish and El Cap, shows all the known routes visible from the main viewpoint, between First Creek Canyon and Pine Creek Canyon/Bridge Mountain. That includes great classics like Crimson Chrysalis, Solar Slab and Blade Runner, and complete obscurities like Boise, Paiute Wall Original Route, Don't Touch That in Front of Grandma and Magic Cheetah King's Lucky Pyramid (bonus point if you can place all four without looking at the caption!).
