Thompson Canyon MORE INFO >>> 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 don't attempt to drive through the private ranch. This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Down left and around the corner from the above routes is an alcove. This route climbs a line of bolts on the right side of the alcove. Climb up steep rock and pull some cruxy moves over a roof into some giant huecos. Bear right after the third bolt (the left variation is 11c) and traverse out right to the arete. Some more tricky moves lead up the arete past another giant hueco to the anchors.

Bolts (six or so)
