Description
Spartans, eat well, for tonight we dine in Hades.
One of the shorter, and hence more bouldery 5.13's of Cachí. Originally bolted by well-known spanish climber Edu Marín circa 2010. You can reach the first bolt from the ground; it's there so you don't deck while clipping the second one. The usual and safer way to start this route is to stick clip the second bolt, as the route starts with a technical crimpy sequence that could easily shut down attempts with no prior beta.
After the starting sequence and a small rest, easier climbing for two bolts gets you under a blank-ish section, which hosts the physical crux of the route just before a great knee-bar rest. Small burly traverse gets you to the third and final section of the route, a finicky and technical narrow dihedral which ends with the best jug of the whole route. Take a much needed rest and head up for a couple more moves, the final move is a crowd-pleaser, a dynamic slap to a good jug from where you can clip the chains.
Extending the draw before the traverse is a good idea and helps minimize rope drag higher up.
