Welcome

La Huasteca canyon located just outside of Santa Catarina a small section of Monterrey. The canyon poseses white limestone with full on technical climbing. Cuped pockets, small crimps, horizonal cracks, and dicey foot holds. The limestone will amaze you. The approach to the crag is quick, just drive up and belay outside of your vehicle. You will either like it or hate it. Paco Juan Medina a developer of this area once mentioned to me "This is La Huasteca"
