Access Issue: Power drilling is prohibited in the Organ Mountains Wilderness. Details

Description

This route is on a sunny slab on the south side of la Cueva, near a few sport routes. It climbs directly up the face just to the right of a small crack system.

Protection

6 drilled pitons and 2 bolts protect this route. The quality and age the pro is questionable. The pitons are all rusty but appear sound. Two of the pitons can be backed up using small cams.

The anchor consists of 2 bolts and a drilled piton. Poot slings and rap rings can be found here.
