About

(Not) Chopped is a 50-foot sport climbing route located in the Montrose area of Western Colorado. Situated on a sandstone face, it is identified as the last route on its specific face before a larger roof section to the far left. The route features three spaced-out bolts leading to a wall that kicks back near the top. While the rock quality degrades slightly in the upper section, the climbing remains protected with good patina. The climb concludes with a two-bolt anchor. The route is accessible year-round, with parking available at the site. Dogs are permitted on the climb.
