Description

The side further away from the entry gate, facing the sun. Routes are listed in order from highest (uphill) to lowest (downhill).

Limit. de l'accès hérité de El Potrero Chico

Most of the climbing here is in a State Park. As of 2023 there is a one-time 250 peso fee to climb for the entire winter climbing season. Please help maintain a clean environment in order to help maintain these privileges. Respect the local land people by packing out what you pack in.

Approche

Can be accessed by a sketchy, lesser-used track, which starts at a large smooth rock face, just above the old riverbank wall... However it's probably easier to simply walk the regular trail to Spires North side, continue to the top, and wrap around to the South side from there.

Descente

Definitely recommend descending via the more commonly used North side trail. The South side trail is steep, sketchy, and has many spiky bushes.

Éthique hérité de Nuevo León

Please don´t litter, some crags like LaHuasteca are a little runout, but thats how they were set, please avoid adding bolts. Rebolting efforts are much apreciated, just send a heads up to the local climbing comunity for safety reasons.
