Is permission needed? I don't recall ever getting permission in the
past, when I was on many of those trips with Bill Steele. Since a lot of
the Canyon is now a park, is visiting the cave included as part of the
park experience? If the cave is not part of the park, who owns the land?
Hopefully Nico will provide the answers.

La Cueva del Precipicio
Back in the 80s there were many fun/training trips to La Cueva del
Precipicio, located high up on the south wall of the Bustamante
Canyon, near Bustamante, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. I went there at least a
half dozen times. My article in AMCS Activities Newsletter #14
called it a Mexican classic, and indeed it is. Executing the
pulldown from its entrance to the road far below after caving has
high “pucker power” and is a test of rigging skills.
I just looked and all the information you need to take a trip to
this Mexican cave is on the TSA website at this link:
https://www.cavetexas.org/mexico/precipage.html
What is unknown to me is getting permission to do it. I haven’t
heard of anyone going to Precipicio in many years, maybe even
decades. Anyone know anything?
