Description

This route starts with corrugated rock separated by smooth sections of flat rock that make for unique, plate-like holds. Crux near the top with some slopey curtain formations make it tougher to top out. Pretty dirty but worth it.

Location

Located in the Carter Caves State Resort Park Climbing and rappelling area. Park next to the sign, near the cabins. About a 2 minute walk from the road. The is the left-most route coming down from the trail.

Protection

Fixed anchors at the top of the route, located on the ground a few inches from the cliff. Only a few years old and placed by the Park. Can get buried if there’s been a lot of rain, but easy to dig out.
