Peak Mountain 3

Flight Path Area

Description

[Edit]

Flight Path Area on Bridge Mountain has at least ten quality routes rated from 5.6 to 5.10-, mixed and trad. Most of the routes are broken up into a couple smaller areas, where groups of four routes share common belay/rappel anchors. This is ideal if you'd like to lead up a moderate route and then set up top roping on several more difficult ones. The routes face east and only get sun in the morning. Nearby routes exist to the north in Gemstone Gully and to the south in Stick Gully.

There are a number of new climbs on the upper tiers/ledges of this area on the left side of the Flight Path area (Raptor Tower). The new climbs up high are varied in both quality as well as style, which makes for a fabulous day of climbing and adventure. Some of the routes here have a few spots of questionable rock down low, but don't judge the climbs until you've gotten up past the first 10-20 feet; they mostly get very high quality and fun the rest of the way up and several are really fabulous climbs. It is in a beautiful location and several of the climbs take one to the summit of Raptor Tower which gives amazing views of the both the loop road as well as the titillating Stick Gully found behind.
