Re: Poudre Canyon hiking
Here is my trip report from a multi peak day in the Poudre Canyon area, including Greyrock mentioned above.

Without a doubt, "Aiguille du Greyrock" was my highlight of the day.

Re: Poudre Canyon hiking
If you want a little bit of 4th class scambling folow the normal trail to the base of the mtn, then bushwack 180 around the peak, there is a little drainage you can head up that is pretty fun. It has a nice little diheadral at the bottom and then a few fun moves to get up it, if you were looking for a slightly more challenging way up it. Definatly a fun hike though.
