4 - Superfly Sector

Arizona > Southern Arizona > Dry Canyon

Description

The Superfly Sector has seen recent development with the addition of Betamorphasis and 100 Degrees of Solitude. Lines of similar length, difficulty, and quality remain ripe for the plucking by motivated individuals.

Be aware that many of the climbs in this sector require a 70m rope.

Getting There

The Superfly Sector is approached via the sole access trail which makes a single large switchback. Upon reaching the cliff continue past the Spine Cave. The Superfly Sector is the relatively large and empty span between the Spine Cave and Bee Cave.
