Lower Caravan Traverse Map

The Lower Caravan Traverse is your way out of Slushman's Ravine without having to go through the crux. It starts about 40ft above the crux chute, and heads across the top of Trap Door, around to Close Call. It can have some rocks in it, but this is definitely the easiest way out.
