The Fabulous Gordini starting the fun upper half

Description 

Home to a disconcerting number of cracks, Metropolis is one of the few "moderate meccas" in Ten Sleep, having at least 2 5.9s. Nearby is the Daily Planet boulder, home to a half dozen steep, powerful routes.

Getting There 

From the lowest parking lot on the west (left as you're driving from Ten Sleep) side of the road, above the switchbacks, follow the trail up to the cliffs. Then proceed west (climber's left) past the distinctive "bite mark" to a point where the trail descends to pass the Daily Planet boulder. Look for the right facing dihedral crack of Lex Luthor.
