About

Maggie Falls Left is a moderate rock climbing area in Maggie Gulch, located near Silverton on Colorado's Western Slope. The site sits at an elevation of approximately 9,769 feet, though it is sometimes referenced with higher peak elevations nearby. The climbing offers a mix of trad and sport routes, suitable for climbers with some experience. Access is via County Road 2, branching off from Silverton toward Howardsville. The road remains passable until mid-November, after which snow and ice often close it to regular traffic. Climbers can drive 4WD vehicles partway up the gulch or hike from the CR2 junction. Parking is available on site, and pets are permitted. The area sees consistent use throughout the year, with climbing possible in most months depending on snow conditions.
