About

Dolittle Does Something is a 5.11+ YDS sport climb on the Pipeline Wall in Telluride, Colorado. The route is approximately 40 feet high and was first ascended by Bruce Eriksen and Paul Emrick in 2001. The climb features a clean face above a shallow cave, starting right of a black arete. Climbers ascend crimps and cracks to an overhung corner on cobbles, then move out onto an arete with cobbles and pockets. The rock type is high-altitude conglomerate. Water from a pipeline runs near the start of the route. The area offers parking and allows pets. The difficulty is classified as difficult.
