About

The Dog's Nose Problem is a 15-foot boulder in the Telluride area. It features a distinctive start matched in a large hueco, followed by a traverse right into a streak and then upward. The climbing involves techy, subtle movements and powerful moves on painful crimps. Two pads are recommended due to the traverse and flat landing. The route was first ascended by Charlie Fowler.
