Swamp Canyon
Swamp Canyon is a long, power-hike climb in Colorado. Its 13.0 TEP puts it above 86% of catalogued climbs. Expect 55 to 92 minutes. Its steepest 500 metres run at 37.2% and start 4.8 km in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. It is graded alpine hiking, with exposed rock where you may need your hands. North-facing, so it holds shade and snow longer than the sunny side of the valley.
