Rocks that hold water, and you can climb them?!!! Hueco Tanks!



Mecca? Just got Back from a week and a half long road trip to Hueco tanks State park out side of El Paso TX. This was our first trip down there due to all the planing involved in getting there, but the "coach" of the climbing team Ian is on, did all the planing and made all the reservations for us, so who could pass that up. We got down there right before New Years, which is a good time to go if you have reservations, love to party it up hard core and try to stumble back to your tent (hoping its yours) pass out and try to remember how you got into your bag in the morning. But for real, new years was bad ass down there. There was food, vegi burgers, lots (3 kegs) of beer and as much red bull and vodka that you could stomach all for a mere $10 (P.S. they weren't really vegi burgers). After all the consummation there was the fire... a tower of pallets as tall as the barn topped of with a beautiful Christmas tree doused in that magical liquid know to the public as Gasoline. How would you start such a huge pile of highly flammable material? The only way that seems fitting... shoot it with a bunch of roman candles... ya awesome. But Hey, you say, wouldn't that burn down quickly, yes it did but we 250 more pallets to burn and the music went right along burning the souls just like the fire burned the facial hair.
Oh the climbing? ya the climbing is cool too... NOT the climbing is way sweeeeeeet! There's not any other place like it really, if it weren't for the reservations the place would be off the his-ook. North, East, West which ever you choose you won't be disappointed. Each area is a little different, unique in its own way, N. you don't need a guide for but, you do need reservations or Patience and something to do while waiting at the gate, I suggest foot bag or Frisbee. E. & W. you need to get on a tour 20 bones if your staying at the ranch and 25 if your not. Go into the barn and pick a tour their all awesome and all the guides are too. They all know there stuff (and some secrets to). Each mountain is riddled with classics so look 'em up and hit 'em up but don't be afraid to stray off your sending path to try other things, you never know what could be around the next corner. Just a thought. Also before you go down to Heuco bush up on your Foosball skills, you'll be sorry if you don't. On rest days hit up the town, There's actually lots of things to do surprisingly enough, There's coffee shops, messages, lots of restaurants (try El Passeto), or strip clubs if your brave enough.
The Front Range Climbing Team headed up Ryan B. out of Boulder, CO (Woop Woop throw your hands in the air) had a really good trip with lots of sickness on every level, highballer v1s to tip ripping v10s. Everyone, all had an amazing time. They only had four days but they gave those days a run for the money, and I know that they all can't wait to go back and crush. I on the other hand got to stay down for another 10 days, I think, I mean I kind of lost track after a while. So after all the good byes and good lucks they left to go back home,and I met up with by buddy Brandon Fox after that and we went and partied it up on North Mountain where the sending continued. Lots of classics went down, new Friends made, and lots of projects to go back to. Most notable was Brandon's progress on Dean's Journey and his silent send of Black Mamba, his first v10, Congrats!
Definitely a blast of a time trying to get back out there in Feb. for the Rock Rodeo, but we'll see.
P.S. the Spaceship Rules!
