New route

El Dueno is a new climb in the Sandia mountains, New Mexico. First, I wanted to describe it as a route, but then I did not set up this route, and do not want to take any credit.
The route was set up by John Kear and Marc Ripperger of Albuquerque, both are certified mountain guides. The route was set up within the past month, and I had the privilege to climb it with Brian Muggs, who is a friend to both guys mentioned above. I was the 5th person to climb this route.
