Carlsbad Caverns' Slaughter Canyon Cave approach covers just 0.4 miles but climbs 349 feet steeply from 4,214 to 4,563 feet. The brutal average grade of 17 percent and individual pitches to 26 percent concentrate enormous effort into a tiny distance. This is more scramble than hike.
The print shows this steep push to a cave entrance, elevation compressing dramatically within brief horizontal distance. by 2 hikers, the route earns respect for its intensity. A cave memory literally earned through climbing.
