In 2015, the owners of Medicine Wall took drastic measures and closed the crag to the public. They stripped all of the hardware from the wall and local climbers lost a beloved climbing resource. Learn how Access Fund and TCC opened it back up.

Another extreeemely cool day today. Went with a friend, bouldered to our hearts content, actually topping a few routes at the top end of our current skill level and with lots of toying around. Then after we were pretty much powered out, met somebody who was quite fresh and seemed like nice company, so we continued another ... uh ... two hours. Including some hangboarding and so. Veeery long but satisfying and nice session #Bouldering #Boulder #BoulderDiary #climbing #sport

“Driving towards Highway 285, we pass strips of red rock cutting through the foothills of Morrison in Colorado’s Front Range, chasing the promise of new climbs. In the front seat, Josh Pollock describes the Narrow Gauge Slab, a new crag he has been developing in Jefferson County. Pollock is the type of person who points out the ecology of the world around him. As the car weaves along the mid-elevation Ponderosa Pine forest, Pollock describes how we’ll see cute pin cushion cacti, black-chinned or broad-tailed hummingbirds, and Douglas-fir tussock moth caterpillars. We pull into a three-level parking lot about seven miles down the Pine Valley Ranch Road. With no cell service and heavy packs, we set off along an old railroad trail toward the crag. Not even ten minutes into our walk, Pollock turns off, and we are greeted by a Jeffco trail crew building switchbacks to the crag.” https://americanalpineclub.org/news/2024/11/20/the-guidebook-xii
