Cochise is full of fun plates to climb on aka chicken heads. I quickly learned how to sling these fun little (sometimes huge) chicken heads for protection. I think it is such an interesting way to protect a route.
We spend about two months driving to and from Cochise. We decided to drive back down the dirt road to make it to Window Dome. The road required higher clearance than my little Subaru Impreza could handle, but it was worth every minute and every dent my car received.
We love it so much we decided to take some friends to share the Cochise love.
And we even stayed the weekend at the top of the Sheepshead. We hiked up with 50lb packs that held all our gear, food, and about 5 gallons of water so we could climb as many routes on the back dome.
Cochise is the place I got comfortable on granite multi-ptiches and odd gear protections.
