Looking across from Estrellita. The Spires, Jungle Wall, Scrutinizer Wall, Virgin wall, and a swimming pool...

L-R: The Spires, Dihedrals, Outrage Wall, backside of El Toro, and the Jungle Wall (Photo composite).

After a hard day of climbing there is nothing better than a shitload of beer and battling over the finger board at La Posada (New Year's Eve, 2004).

This is the view in the morning as we walked into the canyon from camp. AMAZING!

La Posada, one of the places to stay in the Potrero. El Toro is the peak in the background with "El Sendero Luminoso" almost visible.

Resole your shoes, eat some pizza and grab a big gulp of margarita ..all at the base of the crag.

Such a great name, and I found the Plaque to be ironic! If there were more sport climbing areas like this there might be more Trad dads hanging up their racks!

This local spot on Dr. Mier road just north of the Plaza Municipal has some amazing tacos de barbacoa and cabrito (baby goat) stew. The crew working there called the place Comidas de Mireya y Chano, but it technically has no name or signage outside. #supportlocal #babygoats

A breath taking entrance into El Portrero

Lucita at Posada. No muedes!

This place is surreal!<br>
If you look closely, in the upper right, you can see my buddy Dunk highlining the spires!

Crescent Moon follows the right skyline over the giant hole. The tyrolean traverse takes you back onto the main rock. Ten minute approach from the road.
