Description Suggest change

Shady and quiet. A little off the beaten track, but worth the trek. A few short 5.10s to hit on the way to, or from, the Tierra Salvaje sector.

Trail entrance is reached by passing the bottom of El Bloque. Hike down passing Unfinished Business, Nube Negra, and Lluvia Verde. Reach the dead end at the Los Viejitos route and you'll notice that you can actually veer to the right and up a trail. Follow the cairns. You'll pass a bouldering area and a set of practice chain anchors before reaching this sector.

Short and sweet.
