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
Start off a boulder with finger locks and swing up to jugs, being careful when clipping the 2nd bolt. Go left and up wild pockets to a crack then to the anchors. Pumpy but some rests. Might want to tape right ring finger. Can you find the crystal?
Location
First route on right side of cave proper, on a stack of boulders.
Jay and I placed a lower second bolt and moved the upper one to eliminate the ground fall at the second clip (as we had discussed). That first bolt, however, was exactly where it needed to be. Great initial moves to a sustained route. Prized onsight. Mike and Tim, thanks for the great work...ground up, bolted on lead, great style.
thanks for the fix, it is relativley easy there but I almost fell due to pump, I got the draw on but didn't have the strength to clip the rope, and grabbed the draw to save myself from a grounder.
