A vertical corner variation providing a somewhat easier alternative to the original Bad Grammar line.

The original physical crux of The Pump and one of the most difficult features on the original route.

A difficult and exposed roof variation intended for strong climbers seeking the hardest option through the Bad Grammar area.

An optional roof variation encountered during the lower portion of the Jur-Ass-Kicked big wall.

An optional exposed roof finish located at the top of the Exposure Therapy double-helix ladder.

A difficult squeeze-chimney alternative that avoids much of the extreme exposure found on Exposure Therapy.

An early escape option for climbers who begin Jur-Ass-Kicked and decide not to continue up the full wall.

A more protected chimney variation providing an easier alternative to the original upper Abduction finish.

The primary approach and return trail connecting the parking area with the Practice Area, Outlaw, and upper trail network.

An upper-rim trail connecting Sunrise Trail with Jur-Ass-Kicked Summit and the Phase 2 route network.

The primary canyon-bottom trail connecting climbing sectors, access points, bypasses, rest areas, and exits.

An upper hiking route bypassing the beginning of The Pump and rejoining the course shortly before Thagomizer.

Take Shally’s Ladder Shortcut from Lower Outlaw across Land Before Climb to reach the beginning of The Pump more directly.

A short trail connection providing an exit from the cabled portion of The Pump.

A trail connection between The Pump and The Soup that allows climbers to bypass Thagomizer.

Create a shorter Ashley Gorge route using the primitive Abduction Cut-Off between upper Outlaw and the Abduction exit.

A primitive descent from the area beyond the Dynomite Sky Bridge to Cease and Desist Trail.

A lower trail bypassing Shally’s Ladder and the Bad Grammar variations before entering The Pump through Little Foot Ladder.

An upper trail connecting Toothy Grin Topout with Jur-Ass-Kicked Summit and Canyon Rim Trail.

A suspended crossing made primarily from tensioned cables that moves beneath the climber.

A constructed crossing with a stable walking surface spanning a gap, drainage, or exposed section.

A flexible ladder supported by steel cables that may move or pull away from the rock while being climbed.

Prepare for twisted cable ladders that rotate and shift as climbers move through advanced Ashley Gorge route features.
