This line starts matched on a crimp rail over a small boulder. The footwork here is tricky and could require starting inverted. From the crimp rail, move out slopey holds to a huge pocket perfect for a double kneebar, bump your left hand through a couple bad holds, then grab the lip of the cave, and drop off.

Start matched on a good hold at the bottom of the far left side of the cave, then make a stretchy move to a slopey crimp. Some fancy footwork will see you too the jugs at the top.  Drop off on good holds above lip.

Start low in the cave, make a reach out above the arête to a ledge. Stay on the arête as you move through slopers and edges, and continue traversing the lip of the cave

Start on obvious chalked holds in the far right bottom of the cave. Move up through pinches, crimps, and pockets as you take on the roof. This route stays inside the arête, all the climbing is under the overhang

The same start and route as "Life or Death" with an earlier top out. Make a reach out above the arête to a ledge. Stay on the arête as you move through slopers and edges, and continue traversing until you reach the area just below the first horn. Use the right hand pinch and then either the jug or crimp with the left hand to pull yourself up and establish control on the horn.

This cave is full of burly, pumpy, problems on good rock. The lower end tends to seep and stay wet, but most problems start above the wetness. Be ready for kneebars, toehooks, and inversions.
