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!
The right end of the Dr. Seuss Wall, with the four...
Description
This wall offers several high quality moderates, and makes for a great place to warm up or spend a hot morning. The routes here tend to be very cerebral for the grade, and good balance and footwork will prove beneficial. The cliff faces southwest, so receives morning shade, though not as much as the Broken Arrows.
Getting There
This wall is on the right side of the canyon, at the very 'end', just before the granite disappears and the NM desert returns. Park as for the Second Tunnel Area, or, just after the end of the canyon there is a large pullout on the left. Locate the wall from the road, then identify the appropriate path through the weeds and cross the river. The bulk of the routes are on the right end of this cliff, but Rink Rinker Fink requires extremely dry conditions or a belay from the river. The river crossing here is not as casual as for the Broken Arrows, so better to come on a lower-water day.
