Descent:

Rappel the route with one 70m rope, using a midway anchor on p10 and an alternate anchor left of p7.

Or, walk 750m climber's right along the top to find a shorter and less steep rappel line.

The top of the route is at roughly: 26.157159, -100.777568

El Gavilan tops out about 50m climbers' right

From the base, begin 50m right of a distinctive orange pillar, behind a boulder.
