Description 

Fallen Idol is a nice clean section of wall with a selection of good 10 and 11- routes, and the neighboring cave has a handful of stout lines climbing out its right side. I've heard this cave referred to both as the Wave Cave and the Moss Cave. The shady and cool cave has amazing acoustics which amplify the Popo Agie (river in the canyon). Routes to do here include Fallen Idol (11a), the Fallen Idol (5.5 or 5.8), No More Heroes (10c), Face Dancer (11a), Smoke Shapes (14a), Confession of a Mask (12c A0), and the new route immediately to the right of Face Dancer (10+).


Getting There 

Fallen Idol is located just to the left of the Hardware Wall, easily identified by the detached pillar that bounds these two walls. This pillar is 'the Fallen Idol'.

This classic line is a recent addition to the cliff (comment on name and FA and I'll update), and a great tandem line to Face Dancer. The route has a slightly easier crux than Face Dancer, that also comes within the first 3-4 clips and amazing, continuous climbing on pockets and edges....[more]   Browse More Classics in WY
