Brought to you by the letter V is a 5.5 YDS 4b French 13 Ewbanks IV+ UIAA 11 ZA MS 4a British V-easy YDS 3 Font PG13 sport, boulder, 20 ft (6 m) located in Glenwood Springs > Glenwood Canyon > Puoux > Boulders. First ascent by Evan Winn, 2009. This is purple in the beta photo. This route is on the tall pointy boulder in the center of the amphitheater. It climbs friendly water sculpted edges that are so good you would think that they are indoors. The crux is between the 1st and 2nd bolt. It involves a flat ledge (the rest are incut). Once you have stemmed out between a ledge and a good sharp left foothold, you are into a rest. The route has great moves and great holds and is one of the best 5.5s that I have climbed. What is the significance of the letter V? 1. It's a big boulder. 2. It's the Roman numeral for 5. Get it? This is the first of a series of new beginner/intermediate routes on the boulder. The boulders are ideal for beginners and large groups of kids because most of the routes are short and easy and it is easy to set a lot of topropes very quickly by scrambling up the backs of the boulders on the uphill sides. Protection: The route is located at the top of the cleft between the 2 boulders on the north face of the big boulder.
