    Featured Route For The Eagle
    Reaching the headwall on Legends. The start begins and then follows the sequence of large huecos up, and diagonally right to the run-out, spaced bolts on the headwall, photo: Bob Horan Collection.

    When Legends Die (aka Legends) 5.13a PG13  TX : Hueco Tanks : ... : The Eagle
    The best 13a in America. The physical crux is right at the 1st (2 bolts). The pump factor continues for (3 more) spaced out bolts to the headwall. Get ready to blow it on the 12a headwall (2 more bolts) like many of your heros. Try to imagine, the steepest wall with the most shallow huecos ever. 40' falls are lobbed here....[more]   Browse More Classics in TX
