About

Roadside Attraction, also known as No Name 5, is a granite rock climbing area located just outside Glenwood Springs on the Western Slope. Situated along Interstate 70 near Exit 119, the site offers a short approach from parking, typically described as a five-minute hike up a dirt road to the base of the cliffs. The area features traditional climbing routes, including several face climbs and cracks, with difficulties ranging from beginner slabs to 5.10d. Climbers can choose routes based on sun exposure, as the canyon runs north-south, allowing for year-round climbing in spring through fall. Winter conditions can be cold with limited sunlight. The site is pet-friendly and generally accessible, though parking may be challenging on busy summer days.
