Details
Make sure to talk to the owner of the grounds who always kindly allows people to park there and go for a climb. There is no obligation to do so, and he does not charge, but you are encouraged to make a contribution as a kindness in return. Watch out for the dogs, though, for real!
Description
1- North-oriented, so there's sun all year around.
2- During summer the crag can get quite hot.
3- There is no water available at the crag, so be sure to bring plenty.
4- Routes go from 5a to 6c (5.8 to 5.11b), so ideal for beginners.
5- The crag is mostly equipped with M10 parabolts and raprings at the top.

Getting There
Once you're in the quarry it's a 20 to 40-minute walk from the El Sol outpost. The trail goes over a small hill that leads to the crag (see picture). The trail is part of the normal route for Cerro Dedos, to which you can arrive after about an hour and a half of trekking. It is important to keep an eye on the walk and make sure to turn around and look back on the way in, as it is easy to get lost on the walk-out.
