Hikers on the "Pitons" path. Around the corner and up a bit is the first "equipped" pitch of about 20-25 ft with 4 "pitons", then above that is the pitch with 7 "pitons"

The "sidewalk" on the Ledges descent. Why they bothered with the cable is a mystery to me.
Sign where the path splits on the way up. "Pitons" to left, "Ledges" to right

Tozal del Mallo hike (Free hand-out map )
Looking back down at the trails from near the summit. Yellow = "Clavijas / pitons" route, Orange = "Ledges" I'm not 100% sure I've picked the correct level to traverse back, follow cairns. The "Clavijas" ("pitons") pitch is one of the two top aretes.
Looking up at the "Pitons Pitch" About 40-50 ft and seven "pitons". New Rap anchors at the top.
Looking at some of the terrain on the "Ledges" descent. If you're from the Northeast US, it's sort of equivalent to the Huntington Ravine trail on Mt Washington, NH
You can see the (fairly faint) path as it traverses to the slight col just below the summit of Tozal.
Where the path splits on the way down. Most everybody I spoke to used the "Ledges" /"Fajeta" route on the way down.
