Thinking about a trip mid October with a friend to Colorado for some rock climbing. I have never been to the state, and needless to say, the possibilities for climbing are mind-boggling. I really don't even know where to start. I guess I would like somewhere not too far from Denver, somewhere with camping possibilities nearby. A good hike in from a trail head would be fine. Fun sport climbs in the 5.8 - 5.10 range (multi-pitch would be cool too) or easier trad climbs with good protection (I'm novice with trad). Any suggestions?
Also, would weather likely be an issue? I don't know how dry your Octobers typically are. Thanks.
