Description
These routes encompass all of the routes on the south side of the canyon. The south side tends to host a greater number of vertical and moderate routes than the north side.
Routes like Mickey Mouse, G-string, the Trident, and Ali Cat all start outside of the mouth of the canyon. A few routes like Slap and Tickle and the Mangler are located above the dam. All the others are in the guts of the canyon.
You'll find solid rock on all of the well traveled routes, but expect the occasional potato chip flake.
