Badger Mountain: Feral Petunia - Trad & Sport Climbing!

Alright folks, let's spend a day in the Badger Mountain area at the South Platte classic: Feral Petunia! (weather permitting)

Feral Petunia has four main walls packed with great sport and trad routes and a fair amount of mixed trad/sport lines as well. There are also various 2-pitch routes and most of the area is south-facing.

The sport grades start at 5.8 and go through 5.11+. Trad grades start at 5.7 and go through 5.10+ and maybe higher.

There is a Mountain Project link below, and you can also get the pamphlet from Mountain Chalet or the website below. Mountain Project will not have all the routes.

Afterward we can head over to Paradox Brewing :)

You should know how to at least top-rope belay and have a harness, shoes, helmet and belay device.

If you want to lead climb, please bring a rope and gear.
