Nodes in Nuevo León

Excellent limestone, multiple styles: slab, pockets, tufas and freestyle (jk), best crags in Mexico, super short approach (maybe you can belay from your car) Regio culture, carne asada and climbing

From all the climbing areas in Nuevo Leon "La Huasteca" is the closest one to Monterrey. The rock here is limestone and its color is pale gray to white. Most routs here are slab, with some exceptions.

Previamente la primer plaqueta estaba muy alta en el diedro vertical, debido al inicio sencillo que está a favor.

Ahora, si se comienza por la izquierda del árbol, hay dos plaquetas en el tramo a favor, la primera de estas se comparte con "Lagrimas de mi chorizo". (may'22)

La reunión ahora tiene tres plaquetas, y es posible ecualizarla. Para desmontar, la plaqueta derecha tiene una cadena larga, la central dos aros de rappel y la izquierda no tiene nada. (may'22)

Previously the first bolt was quite high on the vertical dihedral, due to an easy slabby start.

Now, if started left of the tree, now there are two bolts on the slab, the first of which is shared with "Lagrimas de mi chorizo". (may'22)

The anchor now has three bolts and is possible to equalize. To rappel, the right bolt has a long chain, the center one has two rappel rings and the left one has nothing. (may'22)

Ruta que se encuentra a la derecha de la pared principal de cazuelas, del lado derecho del techo donde muchas personas realizan prácticas de rapel. Empieza con un bolt bastante alto (sugiero colocar con un clipstick), sube hacia una tufa obvia, pasando por una pared casi plana. Un clásico huastequero.

Despues del tercer largo se mueve a la derecha, pasando por un largo pequeño con un diedrito, conectando con el largo que va a hacia la palma donde esta el crux. Los ultimos dos largos son cortos para salir al puerto entre la pared de juan de dios y la arista independencia, rapel por detras de 20 mts

La ruta es complicada ya que es deportiva. Pero recientemente construyeron una via ferrata, interfiriendo a lo largo de la ruta en varias ocasiones

Tambien conocida como la checoeslovaca. Fue la primer ruta en la que se utilizo una cuerda dinamica como tal. Ya que antes se escalaba en l zona, con cuerdas de henequen. Probablemente por el mal estado de la ruta pueda llegar a ser A2-A3. Ya que muchos clavos y chavetas estan podridos

Esta iconica ruta fue la primera ruta por el centro de la pared Independencia. Intentada por varias cordadas hasta que finalmente PAUL VERA en un estilo impecable, hace el primer ascenso en solitario de esta via en el mas puro estilo aperturista. Huastequismo puro

Established by visiting British climber Gareth "Gaz" Leah during his initiative Project Wall-E and NGO, Escalando Fronteras. The route takes teh super direct line from the valley floor to the summit through a plethora of rock formations and styles. The route is very well equipped and the harder sections can be aided through by "french free" climbing. For those looking to climb the route over 2 days, It is possible to Bivi under the roof at the 7th pitch but a hammock is recommended.

The route rappels are not by the same route. Watch out for rhe the snakes. Rappel es por la parte trasera del pico de independencia. Pero la ruta nunca toca esta pared. El pico q escalas es el pirineos en realidad.

Se baja por atras siguiendo los rapeles indicados con amarillo y azul en otra de las imagenes.

Esta ruta se accesa por la canaleta que usan para hacer el rapel que baja a la cueva de la virgen. Esta a tres o cuatro metros a la izquierda de Reynas y Reyes y las únicas protecciones son chavetas y clavos viejos. La ruta tiene muy pocas protecciones y tiene hasta 20 metros de espacios sin anclajes, por esto es necesario/recomendable llevar stoppers y algunos cams. El cruz si tiene alrededor de 10 chavetas pero todas están oxidadas y la reunión es una sola chaveta antigua.

El primer largo son como 30 metros pero puedes juntarlo sin problema con el segundo largo. Pasas por una chimenea que requiere un poco de técnica. El tercer largo es un poco más fácil y acaba en una pequeña repisa donde inicias una travesía a la izquierda. El cuarto largo lo agrego solo porque es la travesía de 10 metros a la izquierda para dar belay de un lugar más cómodo y poder ver al escalador en la siguiente sección. El quinto largo inicia con una travesía a la izquierda y luego entras a la canaleta a la parte más aérea de la ruta, la reunión es una argolla con una cadena vieja, es más recomendable subir uno o dos metros más y montar una reunión con stoppers o cams. El último largo ya no entra de lleno a la canaleta, vas por un filito o arista la izquierda de la canaleta que sube el largo anterior.

Para bajar tiene que caminar un poco hacia abajo por la otra cara de la pared haciendo como un trayecto de media luna que baja y luego sube un poco hasta llegar a las cadenas del rapel. El primer rapel son como 45 metros, con una cuerda de 80 se pueda hacer y desescalar un poco. Sigues un caminito como si quisieras llegar a la pared donde termina la tirolesa de la vía ferrata, pasas un chorreadero y topas el caminito hasta topar con el siguiente rapel de aproximadamente 30 metros. Llegas a otra estación de donde ya no hay problema siguiendo las chavetas y las siguientes estaciones para terminar de bajar.

Cuidado con piedras sueltas. First pitch goes through a couple of bushes, next two pitches are a little less full of plants while the last pitch is a must do, great exposure and excellent quality rock and move on an exposed backdrop with a beautiful scenery of the parks entrance. (a set of stoppers could be of help) Bajas por atras de la cueva de la virgen, para bajar por el hike de esta misma.

Esta fue la primer ruta de estos picos y esta en la cara sur por donde estan los rapeles

Fue Una de las mejores rutas de la zona. Lamentablemente la via ferrata casi destruyo por completo este legado de los antecesores. Aventura
