The second to last route on the left side of the cave. Start on the furthest left ledge by the tree stump above Quarter Century Girl. The route trends slightly left before continue straight up a tufa. Originally ended one bolt earlier, the anchors were moved after a block came loose.

Also known as "Pasta Blaster". This is the extension to Moonraker. A 70m rope is required to lower, otherwise lower down to the Moonraker anchor and re-lower form there.

This is the second extension to Born to Run, not sure on the grade.

Start in the large hueco out right and traverse into the start of Seams Right, climb the problem as per usual and follow the jug rail right back down to the hueco

Start in Hueco and go straight up and launch to ledge, top out in the upper Hueco.

Open project. Follows the steep arete a couple meters to the left of Clan of the Cave Bear. Needs a scrub. Very challenging to reach top anchor from above.

The route at the far left of the crag that tackles the large overhang, quite powerful. 4 bolts are permadraws.

Start just left of the big overhang, climb until you can traverse to the right above it then finish up the right arete.
