Description
Easy Access limestone bouldering area for beginners or to keep your fingers fresh. 1/4 mile paved hike in. All karst limestone, GREAT landings. I still recommend 3-5 pads to avoid having to drag them during the traverse lines that are musts. Rock type and physical properties are very similar to Reimer’s Ranch Travis County Park near Dripping Springs, TX.
There is loose rock still present, including large boulders up top. Tread lightly and stay away from any loose rock or boulders. There are bolts present on the taller wall just right of The Cave. There are no anchors. Please avoid any roped climbing in this area, as quality and standard of practice is not monitored, nor are the bolts tested. Loose rock and dirt are all you will find on top of this 5th class trundle.
Mostly traverses, with vertical routes to established finishing holds, as to avoid questionable rock. Expect to down climb or drop off from top outs, as walk offs are not present. This wall has been an established area, also known as Mecca, for close to 15 years. Take FAs with a grain of salt.

Getting There
Access Via Leon Creek Greenway: Marquis Path
Head South East along the path to go under I-10. When the river splits from the trail just after going under the highway, exit the paved trail left and follow the river. You should start to see a wall to your left through the overgrowth. Continue on until you notice a trail to your left that goes under a fallen branch. Head left under the fallen branch towards The Cave. Fiesta Wall extends right along the obvious path at this point for roughly 50 yards.
