Socorro Bouldering Guide - Box Canyon - Unexploded Ordinance Boulder
UTM 13S 0316220 3764124
A short ways down the wash from Waterfall is a large boulder on the
left side of the arroyo. Kinda highball and kinda chossy, nonetheless
there are some fun things to do here (if you are careful). Peck did
some of the tall stuff on this boulder in the late 90's, then Walker
and Colin went nuts on it one day in 2006.

Bankruptcy Wall
UTM 13S 0316200 3764127
The short wall just uphill to the West of Unexploded Ordinance.
From the main Box Parking lot, head Northeast along the northern side
of the Canyon. The huge overhung face is Ressurection Wall,
supposedly named after someone took a death fall. You're interested
in bouldering, so keep going. Bankruptcy wall has a few short bolted
routes on it.
- Bankruptcy Traverse - V2 Andy 10/25/95
Traverse the bottom of Bankruptcy wall from right to left, with a
cool throw to reach the jugs near the end.
Dirty, but fun
