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
Quite difficult just getting off the ground! A thin, bouldery, and sequency start, leading through a bulge with crimpers and underclings. Desperate climb! Fortunately, it eases up at the top
To find the climb, find Pretzel Logic and continue about 20 meters north, through the trees, past Motion Activated, around a right facing corner and into a dihedral. The climb going up the bulging face up the right side of the dihedral is the one you are looking for. Not on topo.
Definitely hard to star-rate this climb. Thin and sequency off the ground, but not so bad on a good friction day. The second clip is desperate, off miserable greasy slopy crimps. From there, another bolt and a half of good V4-ish climbing, then pretty easy to the anchors. I'm giving it 3 stars because I got sucked in and worked the moves (it's basically 3 or 4 good bouldering sequences), but don't blame me if you hate it...
