Looking for some fine lake front, remote real estate in the plains? May I suggest Sugar City, CO. Climb up the featured face just left of

Detour 71

– the obvious, thin crack up the center of the wall. The climbing is reminiscent of climbing at Red Rocks, NV.

Climb the obvious offwidth right of

Sandstone Diet

. There is a block in the middle of the route deep in the crack that is suspect.

Detour 71 is not recommended for the budding 5.8 trad leader. Climb up the thin, obvious crack up the center of the wall. The crux is well-protected and is about a third of the way up the wall.

Start up a crack that fizzles out after 10 feet. Work through the fun crux after the second bolt via pockets and horizontal rails. Complete a mantel, and finish with easier climbing to the anchor. This shares an anchor with

Sandstone Diet

.

Ever eat a sandstone pebble? Neither have I, but David has. Begin up thin techy crimps (some may be friable) that ease after the second bolt. Although it appears easy, non-trivial climbing leads to the anchor.
