Thanks for the heads-up, sounds like a great event. I'm looking forward to getting up to the Park a lot this winter. If I remember correctly, Climbing Life website has a good amount of info on possible tours.

Climbinglife.com has great info on lines in RMNP, there is also condition reports as well. We plan on adding more route descriptions to the page this winter.
Let me know when you are coming up from Denver to ride in the Park and will we meet up for a tour.

Hey Adam,
Yes I will be working for Climbing Life Guides this winter doing Intro to Splitboarding clinics and instructing AIARE level 1 courses. Let's meet up and hit some lines in the Park or anywhere else in CO.
So far we have enjoyed some powder days up in Hidden Valley.

Unfortunately, the Rocky Rumble will not be happening this year. Things have changed around I will be out of town that weekend. Sorry to anyone who was planning on attending. I hope to make it happen next year!
If people are still planning on coming up then maybe an informal tour could go down.
Spring like conditions up in the park for now, still could use more snow before the season is over.
