Description Suggest change

This crag is west facing, sitting almost directly behind La Ola (The Wave). The hike to the base is strenuous, tending to keep the crowds away. This area sports shorter, more moderate climbs - mostly one to three pitches in the 5.9 to 5.10 range. This contains some quality climbs and is a great place to get away from the crowds.

Getting There Suggest change

To get there, cross the road from where the tin pavilion was/is, walking toward La Ola (The Wave). Follow the trail around the back of the wave (steep) to a notch between the main wall and La Ola (The Wave). From this point, drop down into the enclave below.
