Description 

Cathedral Rock is the main Pecos crag, and offers many of the best routes on excellent rock. This rock faces west-ish, and so is shady in the a.m., and sunny in the p.m.

This crag offers a number of pure trad lines, on mossy slabs and steep, roof-y dihedrals. However, the numerous well-bolted sport climbs are the main attraction here.


Getting There 

Immediately east of the highway, this crag is impossible to miss.
