Route Info

Look for an interesting crack/flake formation near the floor to the left as you enter the cave. Start here and go up using the limited holds and features scattered sparsely on the wall. There is then a brief overhang section with lots of good holds to top out without much fatigue, don't linger! It is the route in the middle of the main picture, and fairly easy to follow when you are on the wall.
