MapDescription
Climb up the longer water groove on the left wall. This has fun moves with good stemming. It is longer than most of the routes in the alcove. Fun.
Location
This route is one of several nice routes in the alcove area of the pool wall in Ouray. A friendly place to climb with closly spaced bolts. Park in the upper lot for the pool in town. Cross the road and head up the obvious wash. You pass an old no trespassing sign, access is currently allowed, continue up the wash and you will be in the alcove.
Groove is in the Heart
is the third route on the left after entering the alcove.
Protection
Many bolts, 12 quickdraws before the anchor (per
James Garcia
). Bring extras as I'm not sure of the count.
