BETA PHOTO: La Vaca Solitaria follows the long shadow just rig...


Description 

If you still have gas in your tank... and feeling in your calves... complete this variation to El Mat. Very thin fingers and (surprise) stemming beckon you to step right off of the El Mat ledge. Climb to the gray roofs and traverse left to rejoin the El Mat line to a "lovely" (note the sarcasm) bolted hanging belay.


Location 

Pass the box stem of El mat... and La Vaca Solitaria IS the right crack.


Protection 

Stopper and BD Camalots to #1... plus whatever you choose for El Matador.
