Description Suggest change

This is one of the better hard routes at Palomas, due to the fact that it actually has holds, and is not just a 60 degree overhanging bolted crack.

This route is rumored to have a drilled pocket, but I am apparently too naive to identify the pocket in question.

This route is extremely powerful, and requires a large amount of 2-finger pocket strength. The route starts with a few good jugs before launching into a desperate series of lunges and deadpoints to get established in the obvious undercling crack. From the undercling bear hug your way up and right, do a few obligatory Palomas finger locks, clip the last bolt, and cruise on to the chains.

Location Suggest change

This route is the first bolted route to the right of the tree growing horizontally across the trail. The bolts are to the right of a gray water streak.

Protection Suggest change

4 bolts, stick clip, anchor with lowering hooks (lowering hardware added 9/2023 by NMMC, provided by ASCA)
