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 please do not attempt to drive through the private ranch.

Description
New route between Blind Man's Bluff and Freddie Prince Jr. A stick clip might be useful for the first bolt as the bolt is kinda high and the rock not that solid.
Climb past the first bolt through a large hueco, hang out clip the second bolt and pull more difficult moves past the third bolt to a large ledge. Many people find clipping the bolt off the ledge difficult and mildly terrifying as it can be difficult to reach. (I was able to reach it but only barely from the ledge). Pull a few more difficult moves past a close bolt and hit the chains.
Has good movement, but still has a lot of loose rock.
