East Face Left Side

This is an interesting route on the left side of Der Zerkle. This part of Der Zerkle has been closed in the past for the bats that live in the cave that is climbed on the second pitch.

P1: The first pitch climbs to the ledge system that runs across the East face. This can be done a number of ways. Look for an interesting line and climb it.

P2: The second pitch gives this route some character. Climb into the cave and head for the light at the end of the tunnel (5.6, 1 bolt). After exiting, follow fun rock to the notch.

P3: Either downclimb the chimmey, or head for the summit.

Light rack to 2".
