About
Youth (full) is a 100-foot sport climbing route located in the Puoux climbing area on the Defiance Cave Preserve near Glenwood Springs, Colorado. Situated at an elevation of 8,242 feet, the route is classified as difficult. It serves as an extension of the Youth Warm-up route; climbers continue from the anchors, moving up and right to encounter several more bolts and a thin, crimpy crux. The route requires four additional draws past the first set of chains. Access is on private property, requiring climbers to download, complete, and submit a waiver to property manager Ken Headrick via email before climbing. Parking is available at the site, and pets are permitted. The route is accessible year-round.
