1. Texas Canyon is conglomerate that is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp, then do not climb.
2. The south end of the First Corridor is in danger of collapsing at the base of Sophie’s Choice. A dam of rocks and soil has been built to divert water away from the eroding soil underneath these huge boulders. Please help keep this system in place until a more permanent solution is implemented.

Description
From the base of the Acme TR route, scramble up the slab and left behind the Hollyleaf Cherry tree.to the first bolt. Use small pockets and features to pass the first bolt. Continue climbing on excellent pockets and small inclusions/cobbles as the wall steepens to vertical, and as the angle relents past the 5th and 6th bolts and the anchor.
