About

Trail of Honey is a rock climbing area located on Grand Mesa in Western Colorado, near Grand Junction. The site sits at an elevation of 10,446 feet and is classified as difficult. The primary feature is a bolted sport climb on an obvious arete in the middle of a rock wall. The route spans 70 feet (21 meters) and begins with a slab climb leading to a ledge, followed by technical ascent up the arete. The climbing eases past the fourth bolt but remains technically demanding. First ascenders include Garhart, Walters, and Kalorik. The area offers parking and is pet friendly. Access is available year-round from January through December, though winter conditions may require additional precautions. The location falls within the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre and Gunnison National Forests.
