Recent Crag Care work at Red Rocks


31st March 2026
The CCA recently did some work at Red Rocks, replacing a large number of the shiny fixed hangars and bolts with new powder coated hardware.

Red Rocks Cragcare Update

In March, 10 CCA members spent a day at Red Rocks climbing and cragcaring – starting the next stage of replacing the shiny brackets with dull brown powder-coated brackets.

This was in response to feedback from hikers about reflections from sunlight. A bit more than a third of the climbs received attention with more being addressed later. So far about 65 brackets have been updated. This will be continued and will probably require another set of powder coating.
