Better to Light a Candle than to Curse the Darkness

Sit start deep inside the cave and traverse lefwards on good holds and past a dabby rock at your back. Grab a slopey rail with difficulty and make a big move for good holds at the arete or if limited reach use intermediates. A tricky heel hook could prove useful or it may spit you off!

Looks like an extended version could perhaps be climbed from even deeper in the cave at a few grades harder.

Good climbing in a cool location make this route one of the best to escape midday heat! This lonesome route is the single line on the boulder. It is located in the Candle Cave, a large boulder uphill from the Heavenly Path towards the East Rim.

Pads and a spotter. There is a rock behind you as you traverse.
