A Day of Bouldering

Winds were whipping, kids were screaming up at me to hurry. The north face of Hueco Tanks was welcoming the high pitch screams of an enduring windstorm. I was leading Alice In Bucketland, to set up a toprope for a group of kids who had trekked across country with my co-leader Rob and I. We had picked this route because it was relatively easy, and it topped out at 150 feet, making it a perfect setting for the group who wanted to get over their fear of heights.
