Access Issue: Hiking along the railroad tracks is illegal and parking in the adjacent dirt pullout may get your vehicle towed. BUT the VFW just south is graciously providing access via their gravel parking lot.
Details
The VFW just a half mile south of the RR crossing is allowing people to park in their gravel parking lot and hike through their property to access the river and its climbing. Please be courteous, responsible, and consider giving them some business or thanking them and dropping a tip!
For 10 years most people parked in a dirt pullout by the RR tracks and hiked alongside the tracks to access the river but it is all BNSF property and hiking alongside the tracks is illegal. They have had multiple vehicles towed as of 3/12/2020.

Description
As you are walking along the left cliff band toward to the two other purgatory routes look to your left at the giant overhung cliff band. There are a number of very loose looking lines that travel out the really tall roof, but to the right of that is a very clean looking line that starts on a Texas-shaped hold and follows through some weird crimps and shallow crimpy pocket things up a slightly overhung section.
