Parking Issues in Unaweep Canyon


There is neighbor concern about folks parking in the pullout at Sunday Wall.
Please carpool when climbing in Unaweep.
Using our parking lot at Mothers Buttress is ideal. If you have more than one car, please park at Mothers and only leave one at Sunday Wall trailhead. If it is crowded, please consider climbing elsewhere. We consider more than four cars to be crowded.
Do not block mailboxes or driveways and park well off the pavement.
CDOT may revoke roadside parking privileges at any time; our alternative is to build a (very expensive to us) parking lot. The picture below was taken by a concerned neighbor and sent to the Mesa County planners.


Thanks for your consideration!

Update: Climbers--Please consider snapping a photo of the Sunday Wall parking next time you are out in Unaweep. It's especially helpful to us to document use if you can time-stamp the picture, or send it via email with a date and time and day-of-week caption. Photos showing no cars, a few cars, or a lot of cars is what we seek. Thanks, Garrett, for the ones you sent from last week.
