Independence Monument, Colorado National Monument
Otto's Route
3 hours to summit.
2.5 mile hike in to this tower with amazing views.
Go off belay between P2 and P3. Walk thru the time tunnel to lunchbox ledge.
Weirdest route ever! Interesting with drilled holes for pipes and chopped steps. Single set of cams to #3 is plenty. Twin 70m ropes get you down in 2 raps.
Beautiful area!
Justin, Laura & Hazel's Adventure Blog. I enjoy keeping record of what we do. Mostly a log of notes and stories, but lots of people ask what we've been up to, so here it is. Hopefully this inspires you to get out and enjoy our great outdoors!
