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!

Description
This excellent route has a bit of everything. Getting off the ground poses a challenge with some tricky arete moves. There's a good shake before the committing, though juggy overhang, and a final crimping section leads to the anchor.
Great route. Decided to give it a try cause it just looked fun! Suprised myself by keeping it together through the overhang, but the holds are awesome! Definetly gets your attention right off the ground.
My wife, Leslie Kelch, and I put this up...who knows when, probably 1999 sometime. We were watching some acrobatic Ravens performing near the cliff, who my wife thought must be "Crusin for Chicks". One of my favorites.
