Description

This amazing route has 2 distinct cruxes at 1/3 and 2/3 height. Expect a couple arm-melting runouts on large huecos with the crux being small crimps and shallow dishes.

Location

Around the corner to the right of Malice in Bucketland in the crevice and on the same formation. A very obvious hueco line with bolts. As soon as you start drooling, you're there.

Protection

8 new solid bolts to the chains, no extra wide gear required anymore.

[Hide Comment] Climbed this glorious route on 1/16/19. It was reequipped this last summer so the bolts are bomber. 8 bolts to the chains and no need for any extra gear. There are only two places you really wouldn't want to fall but those sections are easy. My friend and I both thought it was closer to being 13+. All in all Cowboyography is an incredible line and deserves more attention. Its on the most accessible mountain and the movement is nothing but badass! Enjoy the ride on the final crux. Jan 25, 2019

[Hide Comment] This thing is pure fire!!!! Amazing dynamic movement. Good rests separated by wonderful cruxes, and honest bolting. Imo the best sport routes have crux getting to the chains, and this is no exception. All hail Skinner!! Feb 14, 2021
