This is the crack/groove to the right of "Pox on You".

Whipped Topping

Pox on You

Banana Splits

Happy Meal

Rocky Road

Caramel Crunch

To the right of.the east end of the corridor is a face with some black knobs, three diagonal cracks and horizontal dike, about ten feet up.

A crack/groove (Whipped Topping) borders the right side of this face.

Start near the center of the face and climb up to the dike, then move up and left to the second diagonal crack and continue to the top.

A low angle crack/seam leading to the crux brown colored bulge.

This route lies on the left (west) end of the south face of North Cave Rock. It lies about 25 feet left of Caramel Crunch, and is the furthest left route in the actual Cave Corridor.

Either traverse in from the left or go directly up unprotected face to a ramp/ledge. Up the face past 3 bolts to a short vertical crack (1 fp here), then up face to top past a last bolt. 2 bolt anchor/rap on top [can be used to descend off Caramel Crunch too].

This route is the farthest right-hand (eastern) route on the South Face of North Cave Rock; the last route that is actually in the Cave Corridor.

Begin on slabs, then head up the steepening face past 3 bolts and several nice knobs. At the 3rd bolt, it seems you used to go straight up (perhaps a knob has broken here) instead head left into a crack/corner system, then up and left to a ledge. Several bolt anchors are to be found up and left.

Descend by downclimbing On Ramp 5.0, a left slanting ramp/chimney on the North Face of the formation.

This route follows the left-most crack system on the South Face of North Cave Rock. It lies in the actual Cave Corridor.

Up a seam on the face [2 hangerless bolts, but a good medium cam in pocket] to the headwall. Up the crack which widens. Belay off anchor for Happy Meal just to the left.

A worthwhile crack route that would be a bit more pleasant if climbed more often.
