The route is the obvious line to the right of

Smoke Trail

. The route begins with around 55 feet of wandering 5.10 terrain and ends with a short, bouldery, compression crux that takes you to the chains. The 5.10 terrain will clean up with traffic, and the crux climbs on bullet-hard rock.

This route climbs the center of the grey tower feature. Ramble up some choss to the first bolt. Continue on techy 5.11 terrain to the big ledge. From here, it is a long series of 5.12 climbing that has no specific crux, but it never really gives up until the chains. Beware of some less-than-perfect rock right off the ledge, but the rest is good stone.

This route is probably the main reason you hiked up to the Moose Crag. It is an atypical challenge for the Poudre featuring stellar arete climbing and awesome views.

Start near a right-facing corner, and angle up and right on techy face climbing to the rest at the arete. Compression climbing up the arete on a variety of holds and features takes you to the anchor.

This was named after the infamous streetdog Miguel.

Start with some unfortunate climbing up a big, chossy ramp until you can mantel onto a big start ledge. From the ledge, climb a short corner feature to the first crux moving through the white face. After the rest, move right and over a small roof to gain the headwall. Angle back left on sidepulls and gastons to a pumpy finish right at the anchor.

Tonka was named in honor of beloved friend and crag dog, Tonka Tarry. RIP.

This has really good edge and face climbing that is diverse and technical. It is equally as good as its neighbor

BBM

but requires a different skill set altogether. Do this route!
