Grand Auditorium

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Grand Auditorium

Dragon Cave's Grand Auditorium is often admired...from a distance. The general feeling seems to be that it is best left alone. Will those rocks actually hold together?

Dragon Cave-Wedding Route

Average Rating = 3.00/5 Dragon Cave-Wedding Route

The "ultra-classic" easy lead at Dragon Cave. The Wedding Route is a 5.5 sport climb. But the crux is getting off the ground and to the first bolt and probably requires a 5.7 move.

GwanDzLing

Average Rating = 0.00/5 GwanDzLing "Extreme Rock"

GwanDzLing is a small limestone climbing area near ChiaYi. The rock is soft and can be quite wet. But hey, you climb 'em where you got 'em. Extreme Rock is the first cliff you come to on the hike in.

Tilted basalt columns of Green Island

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Tilted basalt columns of Green Island

Most of the rock on Green Island is too soft to climb. But these tilted basalt columns are hard. This picture taken from the top of one section of the rock toward a pretty free standing tower. By Ron Heinsman

Julie on an unnamed route in Kenting, Taiwan. Soft but sharp limestone cliffs dot the landscape. It's amazing what you can find with a little perseverence and a machete. Photo by Ron Heinsman
