Per the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Taos Field Office's ( blm.gov/office/taos-field-o…) 2012 Taos Resource Management Plan (RMP) ( bit.ly/2Kab3HO), "Installation of new rock climbing routes or hardware will require pre-approval by the BLM." The RMP is the document that guides all the BLM management in a given field office. Climbers are asked to respect this guidance and not install new bolts or fixed hardware on Taos Field Office BLM land without pre-approval from the BLM. NM CRAG ( nmcrag.org/) is currently working with the BLM Taos Field Office to establish specific guidance for new route development in the district and they hope to have a formal process in the near future.
Diablo areas within the BLM Taos Field Office management area are: The Shack, Winter Wall, Solar Cave, Lake Street and Styx.

Description
This is the super fine line from Observatory Ledge that follows a crack until it disappears into a face-climbing finish. Great hands and fingers climbing, place a few small but obvious and bomber pieces, then game on!!!!
Location
On Observatory Wall between Solar Eclipse and Luna Lumina. Climb Space Shuttle to Observatory Ledge. From the anchors, climb another 15' to a big ledge with anchors in a comfy alcove. Take the left start through one bolt to a short easy slab which leads to the base of a hand crack with interesting bulbous rock. One can try the slightly harder start for Luna which heads right from the belay through 2 bolts to the slab. Trend left from here to find the Goodnight Moon crack.
