ha long is not really that good as a future climbing mecca.... every bit of rock is accessable by boat. boats are controled by the government and personal hire rates start at $100 us a day.
i met a guy who had developed some of the routes there... and was part of the trip that featured in a recient issue of "climbing". they hired a boat on the sly via a fisherman. their captain was arrested by a police bat and they had to bribe them selves out of trouble. we went there thinking we would climb. i wsa there with a vietnamese speaking person and we inquired often about boats crags ect.... and still we didnt even get our shoes out of our packs.
there is no guide that i could find to any of the "established" areas.
there is alot of rock in vietnam granite and limestone but its mainly in the middle of no where.. aloneside highways with nowhere to stay.
nha trang has a hillside of granite boulders that could be ok...
thailand is by far the place to go in asia.
