About

The Queen B is a short, single-pitch sport climb located in the Telluride area of the San Juan Mountains. Situated just to the right of the Big Boy arete, the route climbs up big holds on steep rock for approximately 35 feet before reaching three bolts and an easy runout to the Big Boy anchor. First ascended by Charlie Fowler and Damon Johnston, the climb features a 2-bolt anchor at the top. The route is classified as difficult and is noted for sometimes being dirty. Parking is available, and the area is pet friendly. The location is in Telluride, Colorado.
