After a long 15 hour drive from Austin, we finally pulled in to Homero's campground at 3:30 am. The boarder crossing was interesting, we finally got out of Laredo and reached our first check stop and realized we had forgotten to get our bike permits. We had to turn around and head back to the vehical registration place. That put us back almost 4 hours. I was happy to pull in at Homero's and set my tent close my eyes and go to sleep.
Life is good here in the Potrero. The climbing season is from October all the way through March. From what we can see it's mostly Canadians and Americans that come here to escape the cold winters of North America. Alot of locals from Monterrey come here on the week end to get away from the city. It's a pretty sweet set up here. There's about 6 campgrounds and three restaurants to choose from. It's about 3 - 5 $ a night for camping depending on which campground you choose and how long you stay. 1 $ for a beer and 2 $ for a big caguama which is 2.5 beers. A meal runs you about 3 - 7 dollars and if you decide to cook your own food it even gets a lot cheaper. You can survive on 10 - 15 $ a day here with no problems.
After climbing lots of small crimps we decided to go check out the cave. Lots of good boulder problems with big holds. It's always good to switch it up and climb different stuff.
