Merrickales is in Hueco and he’s taking pictures.

Before taking this one, he said “try not to look at the rock so much when you’re climbing. Can you, like, look back more? Dude, don’t wear socks. Green shirt please. Hair down. Ok jump up there like you made the move.”

Lettuce tell you about the worst climbing shirt decision ever, and how we made it no less than three times in front of people.

We thought, oh cool! Pink! It’ll be pretty! Well, it’s not. It completely sucks.
Instance uno: German Klettern guy takes this almost not horrible picture:

Yup. Crankin away, snazzy heel hook and all on [...]

that big shipping container thing and trailer with signs that say “climbing gear” out in the hood next to hueco? It’s this thing called thecrashpad.biz, and they sell Metolius stuff at a slight discount. We suppose they stand to make a killing, or at least unload a few of those green tri-fold pads. All anyone [...]

To Do List

1. Do not blow up ellen’s trailer. (Discuss with AO)

2. Determine formula for Roger’s Park soakedness using inches and duration of rain, hours of wind since rain, speed of wind, and other factors not yet thought of.

3. Decide if it’s too stupid to bring a few pairs of stupidly sexy underwear on a climbing trip [...]

So, with no sa staff or man harem members present, Jennie and Gus picked up the slack as pointed examples of hotness during this weekend’s cluster migration to hueco….

omg does jennie have shoulder frecklage?

Loving. No wonder she always seems so adorb, that sneaky minx.

Boulders vs Bluffs

So, this is my first post as a newly appointed SendAustin contributor.  I figured I would put up a video of one of best local bouldering crags we have.  Actually, it’s the only local bouldering crag we have…

Don’t get me wrong, I love McKinney. It’s short and sweet, powerful and tweaky [...]

Sweet, more boys and euros acting stupid in the name of climbing. Our rather enormous friend Forrest alerted us to the strange practice that is Czech Republican rock jumping. Apparently, this is what you do  after you’ve sent everything in the Czech Republic. Isn’t there like a really elaborate Czech climbing website somewhere on this [...]

This story will probably be edited fast once the KDBC bosses come in on Tuesday, but we got the screen-grab for posterity.

It’s a wee blurry, but the title alone is a gem.
And then there’s the account of the incident….
A man had to be rescued after getting injured while rock climbing at Hueco [...]

So this is only potentially climbing-related, but bear with us.
You may have heard about this chunk of land near Big Bend (that gigantic choss pile near Hueco) called The Christmas Mountains. It looks something like this:

Nice, yeah. It’s been in the news because last year Jerry Patterson, the Commissioner of the Texas General Land Office [...]

I’ve been so disgusted with the idiotic closure of the north side of Mushroom boulder that I could not even motivate myself to update the huectanks.com website, much less go and shoot photos of the moronic “Closed to all recreational activity” signs.

SendAustin has a kind of freaky website crush on HuecoTanks.com. First of all, to have such a bold url takes balls. I mean, no cutesy-wootsey play on words or slang nothing, just Hueco Tanks Dot Com. Also, HTDC is a bit of a nut job, like in the Ayn Rand sense of the nut job, which [...]
