Description Suggest change

Amazing compression boulder. You don't see much of this in the Sandias with this quality of rock.

This line can be cut into two halves. Starting at the bottom is a very thuggy V11/12, leading into a higher start on the two good crimps, which is a technical V8/9. 

Beware the fall at the top. A large cactus awaits underneath.
PAD BETA: Bring a bunch of cardboard boxes to cover the cactus.

Location Suggest change

Low start: Left hand is on the lowest 'good' sloper. Right hand is on a two finger crimp/mini pinch on the arete. (Check the photos for a pic of me on the start)

High start: Left hand is on the 20mm sharp crimp rail at head height. Right hand is on the incut crimp on the face of the boulder also around head height.

Protection Suggest change

3 pads and a spotter + something to cover the cactus
