Join Gerry Roach in exploring this vast array of sandstone slabs that host a colorful universe of clefts, corners, cracks, chimneys, caves, overhangs, faces, grottos, alcoves, notches, ridges, and summits. There are over 250 routes on 110 rocks, and the majority of them are rated 5.6 or easier. Originally published 20 years ago and long out of print, Colorado Mountain Club Press completely updated this edition of Flatiron Classics, including seasonal conservation closures and some re-evaluations of route difficulty.
