Description Suggest change

Great sport climbing above the town. About 50 routes here from 5.7 on up. Don't think you totally need the guide book, just go for it if you are cruising through for the afternoon.

Getting There Suggest change

Go south of Tijuana to La Mision. You will see the cliffs and the trail that traverses in to the cliff. There is a small dirt parking lot that fits a few cars near the end of the street "A Panteon". The parking lot is located at: 32.0908562,-116.8559926. My crew talk to the nearest home owner just to make sure. It is easy to get around town :)
