Welcome to the New Mexico section of Mountain Project!
The contributions that are made to this site are greatly appreciated; this site is made up of an awesome community of users that make the site what it is.
Although there is very little information regarding “rules” for submitting climbing areas and routes to this site, the New Mexico Administers all agree that the following guidelines may be helpful to truly make this site go “Beyond the Guidebook”.
1) Don’t be a jerk (this one states the obvious). 2) Route and area submissions should truly be helpful to those out climbing. Before posting, you should have some first hand experience actually climbing the route. This always results in a much more useful description. 3) Please, please, please… Don’t copy route descriptions directly out of guidebooks, online publications, etc. This is plagiarism! Remember, BEYOND the guidebook! 4) Please use the spell check and make an effort to use correct grammar.
Again, the Mountainproject community truly appreciates the efforts taken to make good route descriptions. If you feel that a route or area description is not up to standard, a brief email to one of the area admins for suggestions on improvement will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to make the New Mexico section of Mountain Project quality! We look forward to seeing you out there!
Nearing the strange crux of "Unnamed Right".
Description
Unnamed Right is clearly the bastard step-child of "Unnamed Left" and "Unnamed Middle". Of course, UL & UM were twins, which would make any offspring of the two the sinful spawn of an insestuous relationship. That explains why Unnamed Right is so inferior.
Anyway, this route is cursed with a thick layer of moss, surely the result of little sun exposure, which ironically makes this route all the more tempting to summer climbers. The route ascends an ok slab to an awkward series of gastons and enjoyable funkery, that ultimately deriorates completely into a fingertip crack and scary move getting to the anchor.
Location
Immediately right of the brown arete of "The Blade", or two routes right of "Unnamed Middle", or immediately left of "Handsome Parish Lady".
Aside from the intermittent moss, I don't think this route is so bad. The holds are generally really good, but they require long, gymnastic moves between them. The crack at the top is a bit funky.

Fun climb; thought this one would be easier in looking at it from the ground, but found the top to be pretty tough. Maybe I was just tired. Good clipping holds may be found about 15" beyond the lip of the roof.
