True Grit
After telling story upon story about the bouldering mecca Hueco Tanks, we had to prove to our new friend Grit (from Germany) that we weren’t lying. She’s been climbing for three years but has never tried bouldering and was really psyched to see what the best bouldering in the U.S.A was all about. Turns out, Grit is a true boulderer.
It all started at a little get-together we had Thursday night with our climber friends. We got so psyched that we decided to leave for Hueco the next day and take our chances with the weather. Some friends said, “Dude, why go? It’s gonna be like 110 degrees out there.” I said, “No way man, it’s gonna be cloudy and about 80. Perfect for summer climbing.”
Turns out…it was cloudy and PERFECT!!! We spent Saturday on North Mountain re-visiting the classics and showing Grit just some of the hundereds of amazing lines that Hueco has to offer. On Sunday we joined some really nice new friends on an observation tour which led us to “The Gunks” and to the “Sausage Factory.”
Here are a few photos of the weekend but the video should capture the fun and excitement better. We’ll have footage up in a couple days.
