Apart from the initial ascent to the ridge and the descent over sandstone, this route need not be above class 2. We chose to climb all the edges and spires along the limestone ridge as practice for an upcoming climb. If you use the GPS for the sandstone descent, note the we occasionally missed the cairns and took more intense downclimbs. If you stop seeing cairns in the sandstone descent, look harder! Often the cairns are ABOVE across a gap. This the 22nd Gray Cap ascent I have logged by GPS.
