Crag features

The majority of the climbs are 2-4 pitches in length. There are a few single pitch lines located on the opposing ends of The Tooth. Be wary of falling debris from the hikers above. The rock quality is similar to Arthur's Rock.

Descents - there are bolts and a tat anchor on the south end of the Center Tooth. A single 60m rope rappel off the south-east face gets you to the ground. The north and south top outs are walk-offs.

The bolts on the route straight into the horses mouth have suspicious corrosion on the lower portion of the route, so a Anchor Replacement Initiative is underway for the spring or summer of 2013 by NCCC.

Approach notes

Follow the main hiking trail from the Horsetooth Mountain Open Space trailhead. Just before the final push to the summit of the north tooth, take a right on the new (2023) hiking trail that heads north paralleling the ridgeline.  Follow this trail for 200 yards (if you reach a switchback you've gone too far) then bushwhack up and over the ridgeline. Descend the west slope trending left when you can.  Follow the base of the main rock face.  It's steep and loose hiking.  There's almost no little trace of a trail. You have to go farther south than you think.  Use Outer Space Rock as a guide.  The routes start just south of OSR.
