Description 

New crag in 2010. Part of the main wall on the North side of the road above the Switchback (upper Canyon). Half a mile down cliff from Slavery and 300 yards or so down from Metropolis. Currently 35 routes with room for a few more. 11 routes in the John Henry Grotto at the far left, 9 routes in Coolsville area, 9 on the Cigar, 2 on the Nugget and 4 at Vulvus Godzillicus. Sunny in the morning and shady in the afternoon. The Cigar is a free standing pillar with routes on the inside, facing the cliff, so it is shady all day.


Getting There 

There is a large parking lot a half mile down the road from the main (Slavery) parking lot on the southern side of the road. Find a trail angling up the hillside toward the cliff.

??? 5.10  WY : Ten Sleep Canyon : ... : The Cigar
Start in the crack above the 5.10b chalk sign. Slabble dabble up to the vertical wall. Hit the wall and expect sustained 5.10 climbing to the chains. This route is sharp!...[more]   Browse More Classics in WY
