The highest sector up the ridge is also one of the best here and well worth the walk up. The routes are on superb rock, up some dramatic orange streaks (hard) and some juggy pocket action at a more amenable grade. Guidebook page 100.

1 |
Manzanita verde The nice-looking rib is a bit precarious and the finish has a hard move. Avoid the bush at the start. | 2 Stars Technical | 6b+ |
2 |
Terranova The second line leads to a bulging finish. | 1 Stars Strong | 6c |
3 |
Cantueso The bolts go over a steep bulge but you are forced rightwards onto a flake. | 1 Stars | 6b+ |
4 |
Crucifixión The left-hand side of the grey wall. You'll just have to use your imagination and some levitation since there aren't any holds. | 2 Stars Technical Pumpy Crimpy | 7c |
5 |
Ahí va la liebre The right-hand side of the grey wall is about as blank as its near neighbours. | 2 Stars Technical Crimpy | 7c |
6 |
Danza interrumpida The grey rock between the two orange streaks. It is chipped but still sharp, and manages to be brilliant. | 2 Stars Technical Crimpy | 7c |
7 |
Mata-Hari A stunning route up the pockets in the large orange streak. Finish left or right over the top roof via chipped pockets. 1 user comment | 3 Stars Pumpy | 7a+ |
8 |
Metamorfosis Yet another hold-less horror. | 2 Stars Technical Pumpy Crimpy | 7c |
9 |
Línea maestra The line of resin bolts has an outrageously hard start past the big (useless) holes. Above that it gives a superb 7a+. | 2 Stars Technical Crimpy | 7b+ |
10 |
U.C.A. An unknown line which is probably still a project. | ?? | |

Donde dices que vas The curving rib has good moves on pockets. The route is a lot less fingery than those to the left though it fizzles out a bit. 1 user comment | 2 Stars Crimpy | 6a+ |

La silla de la Reina Climb to a deep pockets then use rounded holds on the bulge. It is easier above. | 2 Stars Technical | 6b |
