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!
Beta
Climb up easy cracks and past blocks to a steep left-facing corner to where it gets obviously steep. Delicate pro and/or wild stemming with finger locks in the crack allow you to pass this difficulty crux. Easier cracks continue from here to the top.
Where is it?
This climb is about 15' left of Gymnast and Upper Kor's, on the west-facing side of Potrillo.. It begins kind of behind a juniper right by the cliff base and follows a left-facing corner.
What to bring.
1 set cams, including small ones. 1 set nuts, including small ones. Save a little for an anchor, or tie off trees (if ya trust 'em)
