Description
Climb up the corner and exit the roof to the left. The bolt protects the roof. Follow the cracks up and to the right to the anchor.
Location
Park at the Crest and hike down the spur trail to the La Luz Junction. At the junction, go straight west towards Albuquerque, you'll see various climbers trails. Keep following the hill up and to the left/southwest. If you get all the way to the top of the hill, work your way south along the ridge until you find a large pine you can use as an anchor. You will need a long cordalette to set-up a rap. Do a single rope rap to the bolted anchor on a ledge, it's down an to the rappeller's left-follow the wide crack. Do another single rope rap to the base of the cliff. The route climbs the obvious corner to the left. The climb starts 25 feet climbers right of 1993: A face Odyssey.
