Moby Grape rises just right of center and takes a wandering line for nine pitches to the top of Cannon Cliff. The Grape was first ascended by Joe Cote and Roger Martin in 1972. A mystery lives with the name - was it named after the British Rock group or was this the special drink Joe brought along for the day - Moby Grape Cool Aid?
In the end Joe and Roger ended up climbing a fantastic 5.8 alpine rock line to the top. Today Moby Grape is one of the most climbed moderates on Cannon. The rock on this route is mostly solid, the climbing is varied, and the route finding is intricate. A day on Moby Grape is a a true Cannon experience!!!
