Left of "Boulder Dash" is an overhanging corner off the upper ledge. Gain the ledge from the right, then head up the corner. It's a lot easier than it looks.

fun climb
The cave is a lot of fun. Requires a little thinking. Definitely harder than 5.7 IMHO

Deceptive Corner
another classic J-tree sandbag. I lead the climb starting below two bolts left of the start for deceptive corner rejoining the route in the cave. Face climbing felt low 11. Roof felt more like 5.8 or 9 but maybe I climbed it totally wrong. fun climbing.

Don't be Deceived....
I once saw someone peel off in that corner and slap their foot on the landing. Ow.... Take a look around, "Why work hard when you don't have tooooo".... as the Scrubbing Bubble said.
