Access Issue: This place is open access Details

The entire mountain on all sides are free and free access. It is accessed from the annual route number 3 (hotel of the Olivia curve) to its west face (west routes) or where the Anoka water treatment plant is located before the Olivia River Bridge for the South routes.

Description

This route starts from national route number 3 (200 meters north of the Olivia river bridge). It is a great way of great commitment since the rock is not the best. The translation of the name of the LAMASPO route is due to the composition of the rock that is rotten in almost all its route except the last pitches. It really is incredible the great final dihedral and reach the summit by the West.
To start you must pass the forest and access the first section of rock and then get into a large corridor. This is better done when there is snow inside because it is safer. After the couloir, you must take the direction of the final tower through a great crossing and the final snow to get into the last dihedral. Within it we will find the possibility of two more pitches to finish at the summit Col (This last section is the most exposed of the entire route). The best way to descend is to do it by the normal route to the East. They are 1 short rappel and 2 long ones to leave the great Couloir of the normal route.
This is really a pure Patagonian adventure climb!
