High Plains Drifter Traverse

This route begins at the base of Camptown Races and follows a mostly vegetated ledge for a full rope length until you are above a tree island in the Dodge City area. It is an easier alternative to get across the cliff rather than the bush whacking along the base. You can also start the travers from the first or second bolts on Camptown Races to reduce rope drag, which bumps the rating up into the 5.4-5.5 range.

There is room for a piece or two. The climbing is easy, but a slip could result in a very long fall.
