Cochise Stronghold, beginner trad


Question
I'm heading down to the Stronghold area for Spring Break and was wondering if there was a good beginner trad route(s) or a beginner sport climbing area.  I'm bringing my girlfriend and she's a brand new climber and I just want to take her up something she'll enjoy.  Thanks so much

Answer
Ryan,

Check out the Isle of you for sport climbing. As for "beginner Trad routes, there are some good multi-pitch routes there, however, not much below 5.8
There is one route you should check out on the Sheepshead called Ewephoria at 5.8 with lots of bolts, bolted anchors and 5 pitches, not super commiting and most of the climbing is around 5.7
Please feel free to contact me for additional information or check out my website www.climbarizona or call me at (520) 721-6751

The guide book for the area is pretty vague and you will want to get as much beta as you can for the Stronghold.
Also check out Mt. Lemmon for great climbing as well.
