Starting up Bacalaito on TR

Description 

A high, clean wall sector with some of the
best climbs of the crag.

Limestone rock. Generally shadey and cooler than other climbing areas in Puerto Rico.

60m rope / 15 quick draws

Getting There 

From San Juan get on Highway 22 west.
Take exit 10 to Road 5. Stay in the right
lane and take the first exit. At the stop
sign, make a left to 28 (also known as
GOYA Road). Cross a traffic light and turn
right after the GOYA warehouse.
After the park gate, cross the parking lot
and make two rights to a second parking
lot between playgrounds and gazebos.
Park here. Hike up the tar road that heads
towards the woods.
Take the trail marked with a cairn (a stack
of rocks) and a carabiner sign between two
bunkers. When you come out into a
clearing or open area, keep hiking straight
up. After the uphill left bend of the road,
you will see two trails on your right side.
(10 min.)

First trails takes you there in 10 min.

Keep a low profile while in the park. They
know we climb and it seems to be ok so far
but it is not an official activity of the park.
