About
Hank's Death Star is a single-pitch trad climb located on the far right edge of Kaleidoscope Wall within the Land's End area of Grand Mesa, Grand Junction. The route rises 50 feet from a broad, easy-to-spot ledge, trending right along a prominent flake that serves as the climb's focal point. It is rated 5.8 and offers straightforward movement suitable for practicing basic trad skills. Protection relies on traditional gear, specifically small cams and nuts in the fingers-to-hands range. The approach is gentle and does not require a strenuous hike. Parking is available on-site, and pets are permitted. The climbing area sits at an elevation of 10,446 feet. Access is year-round, though midday summer heat and winter conditions may require adjustments. The rock face provides views of the Grand Mesa high desert terrain and the Grand Junction valley.
