Amptrax, 6a
The absolute El Chorro classic is a beatiful and physical multi-pitch outing of 9 pitches, though already a bit worn. Sustained and tough for the grade. Originally bolted until the roof, requiring some trad gear but now fully bolted. Anchors rebolted in 2020.
P1: 3 (scramble to the top of the pillar) | P2: 5+ | P3: 5+ | P4: 6a | P5: 6a | P6: 6a (traverse to the right) | P7: 5+ | P8: 4+ (abseil from here or continue for the walking descent) | P9: 3.
Descent: Walk down the back of the face (see map), or rappel down "Ebola" 6b, from the anchor of P8.
