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
This line gets the distinction for being the only Trad line at ET. Start up the low angle corner to get to the base of the crack. From here climb the corner thru occasional sections of suspect rock. Anytime the crack gets awkward it is easy to use jugs on the face to keep things at the 5.7 grade. It is easy to use the anchors on Prince Valient to lower off.
