Location: CO : Caņon City : Shelf Road : The Gallery : Menses Prow : Thirteen Engines (5.11c)

Comments: I am not such a huge fan of the lower section. Although the moves up to the third bolt are interesting I find them to be more awkward and insecure. The runout up to the fourth bolt is probably 5.7 and forgettable. After the fourth bolt is where this climb earns its stars. I really liked the moves and the flow of the climb from the fourth all the way to the anchors.

Comments: I don't think I have ever been on this route in the picture. I have been on 13 Engines before. Last time I was around the Mensus Prow area I spent more time than I would like to admit on it. It kinda looks similar to 13 Engines. There is a big runout on 13 Engines between the third and the fourth bolt. Once you clip the fourth you pull the crux moves. It kinda looks like you could be at the fourth bolt in your photo, but you have another bolt near your foot and one beneath that. Unless 13 Engine... more >>

Comments: The pockets & jugs here are a must do! Rare that I've seen a climb that feels like you're climbing Swiss cheese. Definitely a 3 star in my book.

Comments: It was easy to avoid the major crank off the fingertip mono, there are plenty of "good" two finger pockets. And no I don't have little girl hands.

Comments: There is, I can't remember the name of it, but if I remember correctly it is about a number grade harder. It's pretty good, give it a shot.

Comments: Does that mean that there is a route on the right? And if so, what is it?

Comments: 6th bolt jiggles in the rock and the hanger flutters in the breeze (as of yesterday).

Comments: Meh, first hanger is a home-made red angle-iron type and looks bomber as hell, but maybe that's just me.

Comments: MJM-
Thanks for taking the time and effort to put up some fun lines over in this area. They may not be particularly long or uber classic but they're all worthy additions in my opinion.
I would agree that the start to Soldier is less than great but for whatever reason the last half moving out to and around the hanging arete was great. I think it's one of the better 10s on the wall.
cheers, BA

Comments: Agree that the runout between the 2nd and 3rd looks intimidating from the ground; however, I had no problem reaching the 3rd bolt standing on the ledge. I am over 6' tall though....
Now this may sound funny, but I did notice that hypothetically, it is possible to get a hand-sized cam in the horizontal at the Shelf, before standing on it. (Assuming you actually had trad gear with you.)

Expect on red hanger for anchor. Can TR from Abracadabra if needed.

Comments: Was a bit of an inside joke. Me and my partner werent sure that the climb we did was Pueblo Gringos so we asked another group if we were on the correct line because it didn't feel like it was a ten. When the guy from the other group asked my partner what it felt like, he replied "an 8". I do agree a little as I cannot see it being a legit ten.... LaCholla Jackson seems harder at 8+...oh well.

Comments: Jason, you are a stud! For a mortal climber with a leading limit at 8-9 you may find this route slightly more difficult than this 8+ might suggest. Stick with the consensus grade.

Comments: This route is not a 10. Probably an 8.
