Thompson Canyon's southern access via the private ranch is now closed. MORE INFO >>>
The gate to Thompson Canyon's southern end is locked and is no longer a viable option for short and convenient access. The standard access is now via the longer, rougher Davenport Lookout/Thompson Canyon route. See below for details. New Mexico CRAG (NMCRAG) will continue to be in contact with the ranch owners and the Forest Service to see if we can resolve this issue. In the meantime, please respect the closure and spread the word.
This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Description This awesome route shares the same starts with Grendel and Tinkerbell's Nightmare. Start at the second line of bolts from the uphill side of the tower (where the loose under-cling is). Climb to the ledge and continue straight upwards, and branch left where the route meets with Tinkerbell's nightmare. There is a sequency crux 3/4 of the way up, hang on til you clip the anchors!
Location Shares the first bolts with Technowitch then heads straight up. Second climb from the left.
Protection Lots o' bolts to sport anchors.

| Maybe not the best 12 on The Tower but I think it is the best route of the three 12's on the left side of that face. It's a little harder than Technowitch and Tinkerbell's Nightmare but has more vertical feet of good climbing than the other two so you get more bang for your effort. FYI the FA was done by Adam Read. |

| A 30 foot route pretending to be a 60 foot route. But the 30 feet are very very good and so get 3 stars from me. |
