Thompson Canyon 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. New Mexico CRAG (NMCRAG) will continue to be in contact with the ranch owners and the Forest Service to see if it can resolve this issue. In the meantime, please respect the closure, spread the word and don't attempt to drive through the private ranch.
This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description Climb vertical wall to over hanging crux. A bit run out. This route doesn't have a name in the guidebook. Since you are running the rope up the gap between the two rocks making up the giant's teeth, I like "Flossing the Molars".
Location Lefthand route on the right wall of the cave.
Protection Bolts & anchors
