BETA PHOTO: Toprope climber at the shared anchor of the Albuqu...


Description 

A bolted line, starting with thin face and then switching to friction. The lower half contains all the climbing; after the last bolt, you run it out on easy ground to the anchor.

Unknown FA, name, and grade; not in any guide books. Some wag suggested that this line could be called "Tijeras," since it's just east of Albuquerque....
I'm listing it here with a 10a, since the starting moves give people trouble, but it eases off after that. I'll change the grade (and name) after some consensus ratings come in.


Location 

Just ~20 feet right of the start of the Albuquerque Route, slightly up the ramp, behind the big spruce tree.


Protection 

5 bolts. Shares a two-bolt/no chains anchor with the Albuquerque Route.
