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 short route climbs a flaring crack for 20 ft, where it peters out on a low-angled slab. The positive edges on the slab seem flaky and untrustworthy, but are not difficult to climb.
Location
Located on the SW side of the dome's headwall, this shallow crack is easily identified during the walk-off from other routes on the dome.
Protection
A few small wires and cams. The crack is somewhat flaring and the good placements are not immediately obvious. The last 10 ft slab is unprotected. A belay can be set up ten feet back from the top by slinging a giant boulder. Walk-off is to the east.
