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 fun climb is on par with Leprosy with harder individual moves but not as sustained. Very enjoyable moves on cool holds if you can overlook the difficult start.
Pull off the ground with extreme difficulty, using a bad 2 finger pocket and a pinch to obtain a good hold several feet above. Head up on slopers to obtain a good shake on a horn below the roof. Pull the roof on good holds and clip the anchors.
Location
Starts about 10 feet right of Leprosy. 11c is written in chalk at the base.
Protection
5 bolts to anchors. Stickclip or spotter recommended for the difficult start.
