I wrote an article for the January 2012 issue of Rock & Ice (the awesome photos are by Merrick Ales). The subject was an obscure state park near El Paso called Hueco Tanks. Few people (even Texans) have never heard of the area, but to climbers it’s one of the premier destinations in the world. However, most climbers visit Hueco to boulder rather than climb routes. The article is a reminder that Hueco Tanks is still a world class crag – especially for weekend warriors like me.

Side Note: The picture on the first page of the article is of me (and Alex) on the classic Indecent Exposure — but the photo caption refers to me as “Keith”. There goes my 15 minutes of rock climbing fame. (I was also called “Keith” by the minister at my wedding so technically I guess I’m single).
