West Ridge (5.7), The Frog, Sandia Mountains, NM. Photo taken from near the Lunch Ledge on Yataghan.
This is the secondary belay ledge with bigger trees atop P1 - as noted, a more spacious belay, but slightly off route (Thumb in background).

West Ridge (5.7), The Frog, Sandia Mountains, NM. Foreshortened view from the base; climb starts in crack on lower right.
About halfway up P1 of the West Ridge. Escaping this small roof to the right felt like the crux to me.
