Rage Against the Dying Fire
With Ben from Taos. Very efficient route to rap in and climb out. Fixed rap at the top of every pitch but the first one. Not as "classic" as the locals on Mountain Project are trying to call it, even by Sandia standards. Mountain Momma for example is a much better route. But I would say it is worth doing and much better than the Chop Suey route. I led and combined pitches 1-2, 5-6 and 8-9. Never really noticed any 5.10c move. By far the best lead are the last two pitches. Unique serrated corner followed by a fun roof pull.
