Climbing Mexico; Candel Cave



La Cueva de las Candelas is a tourist attraction. They would never let you bolt this thing in the States. Good thing it isn't in the States. The routes are hard and well protected. Some are steep some are wicked steep and some are horizontal along the stalactite covered ceiling. The camping is in a cow pasture an hour and some north of San Luis Potosi. The cave is right next door to the field. There are some easier zones near by and also some crazy volcanic bouldering. This is a great stop on the way down to Mexico city because it is located only 20 minutes off the high way to San Luis Potosi.
