Ochre & Ash isn't quite as nice of a line as some of the other routes in the cave, but it's still a fun climb, and a worthwhile diversion if you're waiting for your knee to heal from trying P&F.

Start on P&F, but move right in the break to a good crimp.  Do a big cross to a kind of grainy crimp, then match next to it on the pockety crimp.  From here move into the undercling on B&F, and finish on the rest of that route.

Alternatively, instead of crossing to the crimp/pocket you could continue traversing the break to the start of Blood & Fire.  Probably about the same grade, or maybe a little bit easier?

Cinderella Is Dead

With great technical movement, cool holds, and a direct line, this is probably the best problem in the cave.

Start in the break down in the middle of the cave with a heel/toe cam out right.  Decipher the sequence straight out the middle of the cave past a small crimp.

Start on Blood and Fire but go right through gastons to meet up with the big jug and top out on Blood and Fire.

Sit start on Cinderella is Dead and work right to finish on Pins & Feathers.

A cool problem that climbs through some of that classic nearly texture-less quartzite.

Sit start with a good low undercling for the left, and a ledge for the right.  Squeeze your way straight up through a swath of quartzite so smooth you can just about see your reflection, and top out.

At V10, this is the "easy" climb in the cave.

Start off of a small boulder on the right side of the cave, matched on a good crimp rail.  A couple of easier moves on decent holds leads you to a pair of pinches, and the crux drive-by to a jug.

Start on Blood & Fire and go left to finish on Pins & Feathers. Great movement and holds. FA called this 10/11.

Along with Glass Sloper, this is another decent problem on the back side of the Spirit Walker boulder. If it weren't for a super sharp crimp, this one would be a lot more fun.

Start on a big undercling block, grab the sharp crimp, then bump up to a good pinch around the bulge.

Start matched on the low side pull on the left side of the roof. Work up through three hard moves to gain the crimp rail and find a way to get to the lip.
