Idaho Springs
5 routes and 53 boulder problems at 9 crags. "Idaho Springs" is the catalogue's own grouping — a town, a canyon or a corridor, whichever climbers actually say.
Which way a wall faces is known for 6 of these 9; the rest say nothing rather than guess. Sun and shade by season ranks the ones we know.
