Description:

Location is about 75 yards north of Jim Dandy, up a hill and around a corner, First pitch has 3 bolts and goes under a ledge to the right, hence the name Cave route. Second pitch has 1 bolt and is run out but easy to climb. This will top out at the Lunch ledge where you can continue up one more pitch to the Lightning Ledge, or choose another route to take to the top.

5 out of 5 stars fun exposed climbing

Did all three pitches. 1st pitch used a purple TCU before the 1st bolt. 2nd pitch took lots of mid to large sized gear. 3rd pitch was got steeper and really exposed, but was really fun climbing. Crux for me was traversing left to the flake.
