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
A new route in 2006 on the west side of Beer Block. A nicely bolted route that steepens the higher you go. Thinner moves down low around the second bolt with steep moves passing the last bolt and moving to the anchors on the left.
The anchor location looks odd but it's not that much of a traverse and offers a big jug for clipping so it makes sense. Two cruxes--going to the sixth bolt and then again traversing to the big jug below the anchors.
Location
On the left side of the west face of Beer Block. This would be climb #60 on Gary Clark's excellent online guide.
