First time to Hueco, where boulders beckon with tantalizing holds.
The climbing in Hueco seemed to suite me quite well and the endless dry weather out there means you can formulate a plan of what you want to do in the following day's and see it through (this rarely happens in the UK). I was pretty satisfied with how the trip went in terms of climbing and in terms of the people I got to hang out with.
The slight draw back of this place are the restrictions that have been lain down by the state, however, if you are organised before the trip and plan everything well, it's not a massive problem once you are there. Thanks to Melisssa Strong we also got to stay on her land which is where all the tour guides happened to stay as well, this, therefore meant it was pretty easy to get a guide to certain areas where and when you wanted to. Some people might see paying x amount of $ to going climbing a bad thing, but it only adds incentive to make sure you do your project fast ;)
