In "The Caverns" on pitch 3
ID 109069709 · · Copyright Violation?
Route showing The Caverns to Selaginella. About 8 pitches of 5.8 featuring hand cracks, off-width, and face climbing.
Five Open Books descent options. The normal downclimb that is often wet in the spring, and the dry alternative.

Fun lieback moves on pitch 1
Five Open Books (photo stolen from Mike Morley - Thanks Mike!). Topo shows the classic The Caverns (5.8) to Selaginella (5.8). Eight pitches of 5.8 featuring liebacks, face climbing, off-width, finger cracks, & hand cracks. Pretty much everything you got!
This is what the start of the caverns looks like.
