Cave of Wonders

Well worth the visit if you can manage the water approach, Cave of Wonders is a mostly sport crag featuring moderate to difficult routes. It features an awesome roof system to test your steep climbing skills and a beautiful vertical wall to test your technical climbing. Grades range from 5.8 to 5.14, with most routes falling between 5.10 and 5.12. Unfortunately, it does require a trip across Norcan Lake to get there.

Guide

All of the routes are well documented on the Crag.
