Description Suggest change

The '72 wall is in the blast crater from the 1972 eruption on Volcan Acatanengo. Please be very careful when accessing this area as the crater is very pristine and fragile and we want to keep it that way! It can be very cold in the mornings, and often times wet until the sun hits it around noon. However, the rock quality and climbing is some of the best in Guatemala!

Getting There Suggest change

The approach is the La Soledad route on Acatenango. Once you arrive at the saddle between Yepocapa and Acatenango head into the crater, a little scrambling is required.
