Las Hermanas, or The Sisters, is a collection of 3 large boulders about 40 feet tall. From South to North (or bottom to top) they are known as Angela, Lucia, and Arniel. This area has about 15 routes from 5.8 to 5.12. There are also many opportunities for bouldering.
Climbing consists of typical Socorro climbing involving technical moves on crimps and the occasional pocket. Climbs vary from slabby to slightly overhanging.
Boulders and Climbs
I could find little information on many of these routes. Please let me know if you have any further information.
Angela (Lower, or South Hermana) All listed From left to right:
(01) A Unknown 1 (? grade): Steep route to up an overhanging face. This route is the leftmost of three routes on a north and east facing corner.
(02) A Unknown 2 (5.11c?): Sequence, fairly sustained, and fun route to the right of the first unknown. The top of the route is shared with #3.
(03) A Unknown 3 (5.11b?): Bouldery start past the first two bolts leads to easier climbing above.
Lucia (Middle Hermana) Most of these routes were bolted by Vaino Kodas. More information can be found on Vaino's website
