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.

I'm calling it 3 1/2 pitches
This was my first sport climb. 1st pitch was fun knocked it right out. My leader (smoke dawg) had to use a cam on the 2nd pitch b/c there were only 2 bolts. Then he had to anchor to a tree since there were no anchor bolts. 3rd pitch was the toughest but a good solid climb. Im calling lightening ledge a 1/2 pitch cuz there is no trail to walk off, u have to climb up to the summit. To get to the summit (easy way) you have to climb over some boulders then trek up about 30 feet of face. It's not exposed but its bolted if u need it. Overall awesome experience I highly recommend it. Next time we won't be sharing shoes...
