Description
This corridor contains a lot of routes in a small area. The routes are short, but there can be shade and the bolts are new and more plentiful than in some other areas of Mission Gorge.
Getting There
From the Climbers Loop South Trailhead, follow the trail uphill until the rock formations touch the loop trail -- this is Lower Middle Earth. At the left end of this formation, right off the trail is the sport route Black Rider. Head up the left side of this formation, keeping close to the rock on your right. Very quickly you will find yourself with rock walls on either side -- this is Middle Earth Corridor. You are at the bottom entrance and the Corridor runs uphill.
As you enter the Corridor, the route Caradhras will be on your left, and routes on the left wall are Caradhras > Between Two Towers. On your right is Little Bruiser, and the right wall contains the routes up through Smeagol's Surprise at the top of the canyon.
