Dry-Tooling Cave

Type
Altitude
5m

A small cave of rock suitable for dry tooling. Two bolted routes and a fun traverse make for great training for mountaineering and building forearm muscles you thought you already had, but really don't.
Bolted May-June 2014 with generous funding from the Otago Section NZAC.
DO NOT GET OVERLY EXCITED AND START DRY TOOLING ON THE ESTABLISHED ROCK CLIMBS in the other parts of the general cave area. NB: The bolted rock climb on the LHS with glued-in U bolts in the manky rock band and a chain anchor is the Steve Carr rock climb Rare Earth (19). Please don't dry tool this climb above the first bolt.

Between the 'North Buttress' (aka the mini-Pinnacle) and the bouldering/sport climbing caves lies this small cave, directly underneath the ultra-manky hanging cave.
