Johnny G on Swamp Thing.

Description 

This is the cave that is located near the back of the canyon. It is very shady as the canyon is narrow. Very rare to find others climbing here.


Getting There 

Follow the canyon back to where are large cave opens up to the left. Since I have never walked in from where the parking area is now, I would guess it will take you 25 - 30 minutes to get there.

Jonny G on Brown Sugar

Brown Sugar 5.12d  NV : Arrow Canyon : Swamp Cave
Of the four main routes on the right side of the Swamp Cave this is the left most. This classic route starts out with a challenging boulder problem which leads you through a steep section of rock. Once through this section you enter a long stretch of sustained face climbing. AMAZING route!...[more]   Browse More Classics in NV

Today I added mussy hooks to the anchors (which are metolious rap hangars) on the three 9+/10A's on the right side of the swamp cave wall. I also added them to the far left route (12a) on the bit of wall left of the swamp cave.

I love this crag...and it will be nice to be able to lower off the warm-ups!

I'm adding anchors to a few of the climbs this weekend...
cheers!
