Sun Cave Direct

Sun Cave Direct was one of the first lead routes established in the Eastern canyon. Two hundred feet right of Wendell Spire is an open cave that gets remarkable South/West sun most of the day. Coming off the right side of the cave are two routes that, although converging on the same anchor, are distinct enough in character to merit separate entry. Sun Cave Direct is the left of the two and it runs up on good pockets and large cobbles to a convergence with
