Negra Peste, 7a
The fresh, latest bolted multi-pitch on the Amptrax wall. Another gem of 5 pitches. The rightmost bolted line on the Amptrax bay. The next sport multi-pitch in difficulty after "Corazón que no siente" 6c+.
P1: 6a+ 40m | P2: 6b 40m | P3: 6c+/7a 45m | P4: 6b+ 40m | P5: V 30m.
Approach: If descending the path in front of frontales from the Sector Momia direction, perform a scramble to a grassy bay (the western one. Scramble to the eastern grassy bay leads to Apocalipsis.)

Abseiling two first pitches is possible with a 70 m rope i.e. they are not over 35 m long. 3rd pitch is about 38 m long and abseiling with a 70 m rope required a bit of easy, but not super safe down climbing.
Throughout the money pitch, which was very densely bolted (thank you!), I was thinking "here comes the crux", but always found such good stuff that it never did.
Compared to for example with Judea del Frente Popular (7a) in the neighbouring Suizo sector, Negra Peste's money pitch felt very cruisy.

The rock quality is questionable at places. The crux pitch has enough bolts to aid climb it. Way easier than Corazon que no siente. Two stars for the nice long pitches

Did first two pitches, very nice and sustained climbing. Was getting dark to continue. Can rappel with 70m rope.
