Cave Route, 5.7

  • Cave Route, 5.7-
    • My 2nd run up this route in the past two months, just a classic trad lead. Everybody concurs, more of a 5.8-5.9 to be sure. I guess this common route was used in one of my favorite movies and what many consider the first real climbing movie, “The Eiger Sanction”. This route ascends the obvious right-facing corner on the far left side of the wall. Off width to hand and fist crack to the cave above and bolt belay. Can use your #4 BD on the lower section. Despite what the Falcon Guide suggests, you can rap the route. Cerberus Gendarme, Zion National Park, May, 2007
