Overview
Unaweep Canyon is tucked away in a picturesque canyon just south of Grand Junction. The entrance of the canyon is sandstone with incredible bouldering. As you drive deeper into the canyon, the sandstone gives way to clean granite walls. There is great camping for those interested in staying more than one day even though we’re only a short drive from Grand Junction.
Skill Development
There are a number of crags in Unaweep that function really well as a classroom. Learn anchor construction, movement skills, self-rescue techniques, and more.
Multi-Pitch Rock Climbing
With many buttresses greater than 600 feet in height, Unaweep is a great destination for getting off the deck on longer routes. Peak uses Unaweep as a stepping stone for the even longer climbs of the Black Canyon.
Group Top-Roping
