Begins on an orange face that leads to a technical right-facing corner system. Exit the dihedral and climb steep thuggy terrain to a decent rest under the final roof. Climb a finger crack to fixed anchors at the lip. 60m rope required.

Start on a technical, slabby scoop that starts from a small ledge. Continue up and slightly left through tiered roofs to a single bolt anchor below a large, chossy roof.

A fun, varied route that climbs through a unique pink streak of rock. Start on a technical slab. Climb through pink rock on slopers and jugs. Finish through an overhang to the anchors above.

Considered by many locals to be one of the best 5.13- sport climbs in the greater Chattanooga area. Climbs vertical tech face to steep tiered roofs. Full-length pitch, 70m rope recommended although an uncut 60m might make it to the ground with stretch. Always tie a knot in the end to close the system!

A Big Soddy Gorge classic! Start on the technical slab just left of an often wet seam. Continue through endless tiered overhangs, staying left when the line splits after the slab. Finish on a wildly exposed headwall with a final runout to the chains.

Climb through moderate terrain to a fun overlap about halfway up. Bust through the bouldery crux after the small roof and continue on easier ground to the chains.

Start just left of Chemtrail Surfer. Climb through the technical slab to a fun juggy roof above.
