About
Real Tomato Ketchup is an 80-foot (24 m) sport climb rated 5.10+ YDS located on the Pipeline Wall in Telluride/Norwood, Colorado. The route features a definitive roof crux positioned approximately two-thirds of the way up. It is noted as being slightly easier than other climbs in the 10+ category within the area. The first ascent was completed by Sean Stogner and C. Abbot. Protection consists of hangers, which are distinct because they are not painted red, a rarity on the wall. The route is situated between Contortionist and Rocksteady, starting just left of a big crack. Parking is available, and pets are permitted. The area offers high-altitude conglomerate and granite routes near the historic mountain town.
