View from within the large cave at the base. Anyone really wondering if the hike out is worth it?
South Face route in two pitches (60m rope).

Approach view of trail out to Cathedral Peak. Cathedral side steeper (more so than Tahquitz) but shorter. La Cumbre side less steep but longer. Red ends near pack stash on Cathedral summit backside. Orange continues cw to descend to base. 20 Nov 2020.
Another brilliant February day---and a new camera angle.

Laura stepping out of the cave at the first (or second) belay.
Side view of the top half of Cathedral Peak. The steeper bottom half of the face is obscured by the tree line in this picture. NOTE: for sense of scale, there is a hiker walking through the brush on the right side of this photo.
View from the bench and where the trail begins. This is looking west. Remember the the ocean in SB is to the south. Take this path to get to Cathedral. The trail was pretty obvious and in good shape as of 1-11-2020.
Very interesting rock formation on the roof inside the big cave at the base. Anyone want to offer a geology lesson?

Approximate line of the 5.7 [[105976198]] route.
Me reveling in the last bit of 3rd class terrain on the way back from a great first outing to Cathedral Peak.
Don't forget to check out the huge cave at the base of Cathedral Peak before you start climbing!
A view of the backside and summit block of Cathedral Peak as seen on the approach trail from La Cumbre Peak. The summit block is visible just to the right of the plant stalk and the approach trail across the saddle is visible on the far left.
