About

Alias Wall is a rock climbing area located in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, on the east side of Glenwood Canyon. The site is characterized as a shady, morning wall. The approach involves hiking along the left side of a talus field directly beneath the rock face. Climbers should note that portions of the talus are loose, so following cairns and treading lightly is advised. The area offers both trad and sport climbing options. A notable route, Alter Ego, is described as a 70-foot sport climb featuring varied features, including a 5.10 section leading to a ledge rest, an easier 5.11 section under a roof, and a 12a crux. The database lists the difficulty as difficult and the elevation at 8,395 feet. Parking is available at the site, and the area is pet-friendly.
