Getting There
As of JAN 2019 getting to the trail head has changed. Start by parking in the dirt parking lot across from Quinta Santa Barbara. The miners gravel road should be down in front of you. Look across and left and you will see that there is a hostel, restaurant and guide service called Red Point. The trailhead is ON the Redpoint driveway. Hike across and through their gate. Look immediately to your left you will see two trails, one leading left and one leading right. There is also a wood sign with "Tarahumara Pass, El Bobo, Plutomia..." painted on it. If you take the trail to the left, it will send you up a vertical trial just right of El Bobo. If you take the trail to the right 100ft, it will split. Take the left trail and it will take you up the same location but is less steep. Your choice. Once you get to the base right of El Bobo, follow the trail left and continue up to a 3rd class Ridgeline. There may be a side trail going left about half way up the ridge. If you take that path you will find a scree filled gully that is dreadful. Stay on the ridge and follow the fixed line that bypasses the scree. About 30 meters afte the fixed line where the trail starts to level out you will see the Zapatista/People of the Sun side trail up and right. Continue another 300 meters and you will find Satori. 25-30 minute approach.
