- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Montezuma Tower is a Super Classic climb at Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. It ascends up the narrow North ridge of the Tower the climb itself is NOT too difficult is only (5.7), but a LOT of exposure on both sides and crowds of people watching is what makes it nerve-wracking!!. It can be done as a 2 pitch climb, but I just went for it in one long pitch with a 60 m rope, I did bring another 60 m rope for the rappel down.
Filmed with: Insta360 ONE X and a 10ft selfie stick. Here is a link to it with a free selfie stick ONLY through this link below!!!

I was scared s***less just watching, but couldn’t take my eyes off screen. Major league man! My wife and I have run the Garden but the view from the ground is nothing like this!
even editing it my hands were sweating! definitely the scariest thing I ever done in my life
Never leave your home.
Dude breathe! This climb is only a 5.7 but I felt like I was watching Free Solo
Thanks for watching is not a very technical climb at all, but exposure on both sides makes it super sketchy to take a fall
Kinda late, but I wanted to throw out that when you girth hitched with both your draws you had potentially tri-loaded your carabiner if you had taken a fall. If you haven’t already invested in longer slings, I’d suggest doing so. Glad you had fun and stay safe out there!
Watched my dad and his friends climb this back in the early 2000s great climb lots of exposure my first climb is just across the way at grey rock
Garden of the Gods is a nightmare. I wouldn't grab a bolt I would gram my car keys. Hats off to the garden climbers, this is bold stuff on far from good rock.
Amazing and the one x shows it well
That was an exciting and a little bit scaring. You my friend have alot of encouregment. Good luck for you always
Thank you!!
Wow! That was intense! Damn dude. You are a badass brother. Namaste
As a fairly new climber I am currently struggling with the pressure and fear of exposure. Its been a vice so far, because I have learned to trust the gear enough and I feel my climbing skill is good enough to do a lot of things but fear is still holding me back.
I will only climb easier rating routes outdoors because I don't want to fall, I trust the gear, but it will still hurt to take a big fall.
Yeah this one is scary. FYI no more chalk in the garden as of this year.
I heard, thanks for whatching!
Thought it was 5.6 with bomber holds everywhere. New Era is a real 5.7
Using chalk though 🤔
Scary but the views from the top is worth it
yes they are!!! Marcos would need a diaper on to do this one...lol
I would suggest not racking your cams all on one biner like that. Learn the sizes and know whats what. If you dropped that one biner you will be out 4 pieces of gear all at once making a climb super unsafe.
Thats for advise, I think this was the first time I used my cams and realized that too.
@@Theninjaonthemountains nice video tho thanks for sharing !
That is nuts!
my hands are sweating just watching it!
Definitely made an audible yikes when I watched ya hook that sling pro...
Nice send. that's really run out in the beginning
So if u did bring chalk a just dumped the reminder in the air what could they bust u for ,eleagley haveing chalk
Getting serious with it
this climb was the reason I started climbing to begin with, I have wanted to climb it since I laid eyes on it like 4 years ago
The ninja on the mountains long time

Lots of exposure on that climb!!!!
Think some would bolt it better
how did you rappel down
rappel the west facing side with a 70m rope or two 60 m ropes
Oh my gosh..just noticed you have a piece of steel in the rock? Isn't this sandstone that can crack??? Is this allowed?
Climbing is permitted in the gardens as long as you have a city issued permit and sand colored chalk. I believe most of the climbs are bolted( not positive on this part)
yeah, probably not too safe which is why I backed it up and shortly after found a bolt, I was new to this route and nervous with exposure on both sides
i saw someone today climbing this route and sundown. he was stuck midway.
there is a belay spot halfway and a lot of people just climb it halfway, since it gets really intense from there on
