Mexican Breakfast Formation
Description
[Edit]The Mexican Breakfast formation is a relatively minor formation ~160' tall, located just in front of and below the big west face of Torreon. It would probably be forgotten amongst the larger faces in the Sandias were it not for the striking 10' horizontal roof midway up it, and its clean cracks. The namesake route on the cliff, Mexican Breakfast Crack, is a Sandia classic, and Tarantula, the other obvious line on the formation, is relatively high quality as well.
The crag faces southwest, and is therefore shaded until the afternoon.
A logical enchainment is to do a climb on Mexican Breakfast Formation followed by one on Torreon, to get max climbing with minimal hiking.
