Access Issue: Thompson Canyon
Details
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
A new route as of September 21, 2019. Expect flaky bits and loose rock if you venture far from the bolt line. Tread lightly as it cleans up--it has seen only a handful of ascents in millions of years. :-)
Like its neighbor to the left, Bovary starts up lower angle rock to the big ledge. From the ledge, climb up and mostly right of the bolt line on great pockets as the rock steepens. Pull harder moves leading up to the final, tough bulge at the top. Pop over the bulge to the anchors.
