Description

This is the first group of needles immediately to the left once you have entered the valley of El Cajon.

Its forms rise up very slender although the rock is of varied quality, sometimes with a quite loose grain especially at the base of the needles but always with good possibilities of placing protection.

The lines, sometimes discontinuous but with some very beautiful and sustained pitches, suggest climbing which requires good interpretation of the terrain.

The following needles are located here: Aguja Cara del Inca, Muralla Oculta, Aguja Casimiro Ferrari, Aguja America, Aguja Nuez, Aguja Alta Nuez and Aguja Drusito.
