About
Gravity's Rainbow is a bouldering problem located in Telluride, Colorado, on the Western Slope. The climb features a distinct double arete compression feature that rises approximately 13 feet (4 meters) from the ground. It is rated V6, though some climbers note variations that may feel closer to V4 depending on the exit chosen. The route begins with a spanned start, requiring climbers to place their left hand on an incut edge and their right hand on the arete at roughly 5.5 feet in height. Climbers can exit to the right after reaching the apex or take a left variation that adds one or two moves. The problem is situated near The First Boulder and offers protection from falls via crash pads. Parking is available on site, and the area permits pets. The climbing season extends year-round, with access from January through December.
