About
Bones is a 5.8 YDS trad, 70 ft (21 m) located in Telluride/Norwo > Ophir > Cracked Canyon. First ascent by Jim Gribib, Dan Langmade. The crux is the first 30 feet in the hand crack. It is strenuous. There is another cruxy move at the top. Protection: This is a handcrack 10 feet left of first large chimney on the right side of the canyon. Previously you would rap from the tree up and left of top, left of Attica's corner. Per Chris Dickson: this route starts as a handcrack, to the right of Attica's corner, on the right-side of the canyon. The Attica, Bones, Roller Skates alcove is a great belay hang, and all 3 routes now feature bolted anchors.
