Climbing Meetup in Red Rocks. This is a super place for sport climbing and if you hike a little farther, there are some epic multi-pitch sport and trad climbs.

Have a Group campsite (A-Gila Monster) for Thursday to Monday. This campsite can old up to 30 people and 8 vehicles. Need at least 8 confirmed campers each staying at least 2 nights to keep this group site, otherwise we will switch to a few individual sites. I realize some Red Rock climbers like to get a hotel or AirBnB instead of camping. Also, if everyone wants to camp only Friday-Sunday, I need to shorten the reservation by about October 30.

I expect to be there from Fri night to Sunday afternoon, but of course you can arrive earlier or stay longer.

We will focus on climbing sport routes near the first and second Turnouts of the scenic loop drive. But you can definitely go to climb stuff off the other turnouts or the Calico Basin climbs that don't require entering the loop. Entering the loop requires an advance online reservation and either a $15 fee or a US National Parks pass (one fee or pass per vehicle). Also, parking ends around 5 or 6pm and you request a late exit pass if you're planning to exit after that.

If it rains beforehand, Red Rocks is off-limits to climbing and we'll have to go find some limestone to climb on instead, until the sandstone dries out.

Cost per person is $20 to camp 1 night, $25 to camp 2 nights, $30 to camp 3 nights, or $35 to camp 4 nights. No charge if you arrange your own hotel stay, but let me know so I can keep the group campsite or switch it to some smaller campsites. Carpooling strongly encouraged as we are only allowed 8 cars parked on site (we can probably squeeze in 9 cars with careful parking).

Campsite allows gas stoves and has a fire pit plus there are many restaurants if you just drive 15-25 minutes east. There is also a supermarket and a few small restaurants 10 minutes down the road.
