My wife and I will be heading to the Dominican Republic in June 2015 for a friend's wedding, and we want to make the most of the trip by hitting some rock climbing in the area. We'll be flying in and out of punta cana. It seems like info about climbing in the Dominican is sparse online, if there is anyone with experience in that region we would certainly appreciate some advice and/or recommendations. The Fronton beach area seems nice, and we're excited about sport or bouldering or trad, up to 5.10 trad, 5.12a sport, and v6. Also would like to know how much of a worry malaria and dengue fever are, if anyone has advice in that area.
To the best of my knowledge all bolts in the DR are stainless steel, and therefore not to be trusted. I've posted a lot of information on corroded bolts over the years. You can search for my name in the forums.
