    About

    Princess Ella's Magical Adventure is a 5.8 YDS sport, 270 ft (82 m), 4 pitches, grade ii located in Ouray vicinity > Waterfall Wall. It's rated as a Grade II climb. This is a 4-pitch route. First ascent by Skoloda, Jackson, Jackson. This is a scenic, little, 4-pitch outing on Red Mountain Pass. It has a short approach, great views, and solid quartzite rock. There is an exciting headwall finish. Thanks to the first ascensionists for the work to put in this nice moderate (think bell-shaped curve.) Bring granny! Protection: Approach as for the Waterfall Wall. PEMA is upstream after the Tyrolean. After the tyrolean, don't rap in anywhere! Head straight/right up a gully, then go climber's left (south) along the base of the cliff maybe 150 yards. Princess Ella's Magical Adventure starts at the toe of a small buttress maybe 30 feet above the creek, base of the route at 37.97697, -107.65729. Shiny bolts head up 75 feet to a ledge and a big pine. 3 more pitches of friendly bolts get you up the headwall finish to a big ledge and great views. Per Eldo Cruiser: you can stay left on last pitch for 5.8 finish. Descend with 4 raps with a single 70m rope. There are a few loose rocks, but overall it has great rock. You can scope it from the highway 100 yards south of the parking spot, just above a scree slope that goes all the way to the creek.
