Description
A fun moderate in the Riglos area on the Aguja Roja (Red Needle). The route heads up the back side of the tower from the trail in.
Pitch 1 heads up the right side of a conglomerate mass in between two towers, then crosses to the left on top.
Pitch 2 climbs up and left on the face.
Pitch 3 goes through the right-facing dihedral. You will pass a single bolt; don't belay there. There is a two-bolt anchor above.
Pitch 4 follows a short, easy ridge to the top.
Rappel twice with two 60m ropes or four with one 70m.
