Multiple routes in this photo, but the one I have in mind takes the splitter on the upper part of the tallest face.

Matt has it! Touched by an Angel in Sedona.

Touched by an angel? Headed there in a couple weeks so it’s on the mind.

A hint: a sport climb in a state of mostly trad climbs

Indeed. A surprisingly good wall of sport climbs nestled in a forest otherwise devoid of solid route-height rock.

I think the old topo for that crag has my favorite climbing prank of all time. Reel them in with a tantalizing (nonexistent) route description, then send 'em on a wild goose chase.

Slightly different take on “Name That Route” for those whose encyclopedic knowledge of routes is a bit lighter - here’s a route that we originally named “Doing It In A Prius” for a buddy who has asked me to rename it to something a bit more family friendly. It’s at a wall called “Improbable Wall”. Give a suggestion or two for a new route name, whoever has the suggestion I like most by 4pm mountain time (8 hours from now) gets it.

Start under the hanging hand crack, turn the corner on great jams and continue up until it turns into a layback ­ending on a mantle to a great ledge below the anchor. 5.10-, Rack to #3, 55ft
