Warm-up Traverse Area is a climbing area on county land in the Mount Glennon area of Colorado, about 6.8 miles from the Marston Fltr Plt weather station.

Typical averages from the nearby weather station show May highs around 69°F and September highs around 77°F, with July the warmest month at about 86°F.
