Description Suggest change

One of the most popular multipitch sport routes in the country. If you go on the weekend during the high season you are sure to find another party in the area. Approach straight towards the face from the large pulloff. 20-30 minutes walking. Scramble up to the 1st pitch belay rings(see photos and/or website-rocanbolt.com or guias escalada chile)

Aprox:
Pitch 1 - 5.8 30m
Pitch 2 - 5.8 40m
Pitch 3 - 5.7 55m
Pitch 4 - 5.9 40m
Pitch 5 - 5.9 40m
Pitch 6 - 5.7 40m
Pitch 7 - 5.7 40m
Pitch 8 -5.8 45m
Pitch 9 - 5.8 35m
Pitch 10 - 5.10c(A0) 50m

Overhanging crux to start the 10th pitch can be aided by using the bolts if unable to pull the moves. Techy face climbing for ~35m to the chains. Can climb an 11th pitch to then walk off down a scree gulley but it is recommended to rap down with 2 ropes. 

Location Suggest change

Park at the large pulloff along the right of the road after the mining operation after passing baños morales. Approach directly south towards the rock face. Must scramble aprox. 50m to the initial belay station below pitch one. 

Protection Suggest change

Bolts and bolted anchors in good condition as of Feb. 2018. Bring 22+ quickdraws/longdraws, runners are helpful to reduce rope drag on such long pitches. Be aware of loose rock along the large ledges.
