Climbing at Our Camp
The climbing in El Potrero chico is world renown for it's tufas and overhanging faces as well as for it's long bolted climbs. Our guides will cator to your child's safety needs while offering top of the line instruction. We encourage our students to lead but only on routes that we know are well bolted, and with in their ability. Our students, on average, improve their climbing two letter grade in a week of climbing. Our camps goal is give a well rounded climbing experience with a focus in multi-pitching. We will have three days of multi-pitch climbing, one day of sport climbing, and one day of bouldering. |

Lodging
The house at which our camp is hosted is located on top of a hill in side the canyon away from the hustle of all the camp grounds. The boys and girls have seperate sleeping spaces, and share a common living space. The only exposure that our students have to the other climber is at the crags. It is important to us that our students do not have the oportunity to use alcohol at any time during their trip. We want your children to have a clean challenging time in Northern Mexico. |

Supervision
At all times the students will be under the supervision of one or more of our guides. During down time and at the house there will always be a staff member to maintain loose yet constant supervision.
