- Just wanted to put the word out. Hueco Tanks , Texas was Closed on 11/11/92
- until at least 11/26/92 to ALL ACTIVITIES.
-
- Vandals spray painted overtop of ancient Indian pictographs a couple of
- weeks ago. It appears that the decision to close the park was made around
- 8am and EVERYONE had to be out of the park by 5pm. The park will use this 2
- weeks to decide how to provide access to the abundant natural resources, while
- providing security to the priceless history that abounds.
-
- It was unclear at the time, just what the future of climbing and other
- activities might be in Hueco Tanks State Park.
-
- If anyone has a trip currently scheduled to Hueco, I strongly suggest that you
- contact the park office as well as the local climbing organizations to
- ascertain the current status of the park.
