Poudre Canyon lies up CO Highway 14, just north of Fort Collins. The rock is made up of granite, gneiss, and schist. Roadside lines are mostly sport or mixed routes, but there are some quality trad lines as well.
The first time I climbed at Poudre Canyon was in September 2022, on a 1-night, 1-day trip to check the area out.
On this page, I give photos from climbing in Poudre Canyon, organized by date. At the bottom of the page, I keep a list of the climbs I've done in Poudre Canyon.

A fun one-night, one-day trip to check out the Poudre Canyon. Weather was quite splitter for Sunday, so we decided to take advantage of that and climb at Lumpy Ridge on Sunday rather than stay another day at Poudre Canyon. We thought the cragging and camping in the Poudre is worth returning for, plus it is only an hour and a half from Estes Park, so we will be back!
