Ratings here seem a little soft, but not too bad. Climbs often have good stances for placing pro.

I have filled in some of the gaps with information from Dennis R. Jackson's Falcon guide to New Mexico. Please post if there is protection specific to each route.
I have my eyes on a few new lines here, so hopefully there will be some new cracks or even boulder problems in the near future!
