ABOUT Area B

This digital Area B climbing guidebook gives you GPS navigation, verified topos, and beta for hundreds of climbs. Explore classics and hidden gems with offline access to maps, directions, and beta videos. Whether it's your first visit or fiftieth, KAYA makes your Area B days smoother, safer, and more dialed.

Area B is a beautiful quiet collection of boulders near treeline. The views towards the summit of Mt. Evans are sublime. This is still being developed, but good rock, a gorgeous setting, and lack of visitors make it a wonderful destination.

Facing Silverback, head right, around the boulder and pick up a good social trail that heads through the woods, upcanyon. Follow the social trail for about 600 yds (0.35 mile) or 7-10 minutes (depending on how fast you hike) to Random Progression, which will appear on your left, 7 yds off the trail. The elevation of Area B is 11,279 ft.
