Superstition Cave

Post by AZDane »

Anybody explored this cave on the NW side of Superstition Mountain. How hard is it to get to?

It's saying that photo hasn't been published yet; maybe you still have it in preview?

Cave does look like an interesting cave, nice shadow to it and maybe deep, kind of cool, but from zooming in on the picture, it almost seems technical in nature to reach, I am not sure if that is a c3/4 ram leading it up to it, but my best estimates are that is certainly appears to be a technical approach.

Doubtful you're making it in there without gear. I think I've looked up at that and wondered......I've done a ton of class 4/5 climbing in Colorado and some rock climbing up to 5.10 this looks interesting. It's only 10 mins from my house. Once my thumbs heals up maybe I'll take a peeksie. Still babying the thumb from sending a 1/4" broken drill bit straight through the end of it. Complete pass through and luckily it was only meat and not bone. Yeah, it was fun. lol.
