The Palace


PictureTom running up "Orange You Glad"
Orange You Glad: (5.7)
 -This route is perfect for a warm up or for climber who wishes to try out their lead skills for the first time outdoors. It is fairly lengthy so bring your 50m rope. With 9 clips it will test your endurance but will not take a beating on your forearms. 


-The route is located on the far right and is the last one on the Poudre Face. To get to it, take the first right in the forked trail after crossing the river. Follow the trail up keeping the rock face of your left. (Mind you, you should be able to see the tunnel and Crystal Wall from every route on the Poudre Face.)

Directions: Crystal Wall and The Palace are located exactly 15 miles from Ted's Place. So set your odometer, head west, and keep an eye out for the tunnel because the pull off parking is a few hundred yards after it on the right.
