About
Stepping Stone is a 50-foot sport climbing route located on Canine Wall within Rifle Mountain Park, Rifle, Colorado. The route features six bolts and ends at a two-bolt anchor. The climb begins with a tricky initial move before transitioning to easier climbing above. It is situated in a gully feature, identifiable by a noticeable belay station supported by tree roots. The upper anchor is blocked off, discouraging top-roping past the lower anchor. The rock is limestone, typical of the Rifle area. Parking is available on site, and the area is pet friendly. The route is rated moderate.
