Lunar Eclipse is an aid line on El Capitan known for wandering, awkward sequence choices, and sections that rely on marginal fixed hardware. Rated A4 in the writeup, it mixes sustained aid pitches with route-finding challenges and ledges that have been the site of previous accidents, giving it a reputation for being technically fiddly and committing. The route is of interest both to aid climbers and speed teams because its line and gear quality reward experience and route knowledge in addition to physical pace.
