Description 

Cerro La Junta is the closest wall from the refugio. The routes begin slabby and transition to nearly vertical on its right face to slightly overhanging and rarely attempted left face.

Getting There 

Locate a trailhead from the old huts in the camping area. Signs will lead you to La Junta, which is about a 45 minute hike
