Blodgett Peak

Blodgett sits at the northern end of the Colorado Springs climbing area. The peak itself is part of Pike National Forest while the base and foothills below the peak are part of the Blodgett Peak Open Space, a TOPS property managed by the city.

 

There is a substantial amount of boulder problems that have been established and not well documented on Blodgett. There is also a handful of quality trad and bolted sport climbs to be found.
