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
The route just right of the cave in the middle of the wall. Two starts, you can either do the direct start above the killer desert spiky yucca, or climb the the easier slabby rock to the left. Clip the first bolt (hint, look for the stellar under-cling), then continue up two different overhanging jug hauls. Jugs all there but may be difficult to find through the overhangs. Nice 5.10 route!
