There, they will choose one of three routes: Tectonic Traverse approach, Exposure Therapy, or Commitment Issues. Routes will feature vertical climbing alongside natural crystal formations and exposed traverses, leading to two suspension bridges: the 50-foot Iron Journey bridge, a Burma-style bridge hanging 100 feet above the ground, and the Epiphany bridge, a dual-cable bridge with sweeping views 400 feet above the ground.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Before climbing the Corbet\u2019s routes, guides will take guests to Casper Buttress for a warm-up.\u00a0<\/strong>The resort requires guests to warm up before climbing Corbet\u2019s.
