Details
you must either call in or get a day pass at Camp Petersville
Description
Starting just inside the cave, climb the wall on the right by following a crack past a block. Continue by stemming with your back on the backwall and exit the cave to the right. From the ledge, link up with Reindeer Land. This route is 5.9 if you don't use the backwall in the cave.
Variation: The original route was done in 2 pitches and headed right on easy terrain from the ledge after the cave.
Protection
Cams and Nuts - No anchor at the top (traverse right for a third pitch to reach an anchor)
