Description

Just downstream from the Plan B Boulder, Eagle Creek splits two large granite faces. This wall consists of generally poor granite, and the climbs are taller (20 to 40 feet) with less than optimal landings (in the creek). Several options exist here and apart from traverse options, almost all are highball problems. On very dry years you might be able to pad up the landings, but on taller problems, this wouldn't do much.

Please DO NOT BOLT any of these faces (including TR anchors) until the appropriate access can be established with the City of Alto/ Village of Ruidoso. Until such time, highball/solo at your own risk.
