Description 

Dark and damp crag in a cloud forest. Probably only a few weeks per year at the end of the dry season where it's dry enough to climb. Three short sport lines with nice, new glue in bolts and chains.

Getting There 

From San Ignacio, Chalatenango, drive up to Rio Chiquito. Take a left in Rio Chiquito. With four-wheel drive, you can make it to the top of El Pital. Otherwise, find a way to park and hike up to the top, about 3 km. At the top, ask a local where to find the "piedras."
