Description
This crag has some fun climbs and it is not nearly as steep as Cueva Cabeza de la Vaca. Most of it is vertical to slightly overhanging with cracks, pockets and smaller tufas. It is a great place to escape the sun as it is shady most of the day. Be wary of wasp nests. I was stung twice in the face while climbing on Guajiro Natural and knocked down one nest, but that seems to be par for the course. Wasp like these cliffs as much as climbers do.
Getting There
The best way to get here is by walking through the tunnel at Cueva Cabeza de la vaca. Its worth doing even if your not going to go climb. The tunnel is about a hundred yards long and just about when you think you'll need a light you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Once you get to the other side you will have a nice view of the farms below, hike down a steep trail about 50 meters to the fields below another 100 meters or so along the field and the cliff will be up on your left. You can't really miss it.
