Description

Located just left of ‘Sector 3’ on different levels. Some climbs have a fairly decent amount of shade, even later in the day. This area has lots of potential for bolting long pitches and mixed climbs, the rock is just waiting for someone with a cleaning brush who envisions the lines. Maquina del tiempo is a clear example of the climbs that can be bolted in this area.

Algunas vías tienen una cantidad de sombra decente. Esta área tiene mucho potencial para equipar vías largas y vías mixtas, la roca solo está esperando por alguien que tenga un cepillo para limpiar y que tenga la visión. Máquina del tiempo es en claro ejemplo de las vías que se pueden armar en esta área.

Approach

Same as for ‘Sector 3’ and then a few meters left and up.

Grade Route

Follow the trail left on the same level to reach these routes.

5 to 10 meters further left from Salvadoreña.

2nd pitch of "Chapa de emergencia".

Nice sustained route that sees little traffic. This used to be the men's ultimate route for a "roctrip" style competition years ago.

Via bonita y sostenida que ve poco trafico. Esta via era la final de la categoria masculina de una competencia de escalada en roca hace años.

If you want to try out your first lead ever, this is a good place to start.

Si queres empezar a puntear, este es un buen lugar para empezar.

The obvious roof on your way to Salvadoreña.

Hike up the trail to reach these routes.

tricky climb, can be climbed with good technique and little strength.

Via que tiene su maña, se puede escalar con buena tecnica y poca fuerza.

1 5.10d
2 5.11c

Two pitches, first pitch is a 5.10d well bolted extension to "Nido de Halcones L", offwidth shenanigans and a bit loose if you start to wander. Second pitch is awesome, very atypical to Amatitlán with pockets and powerful moves on decent holds.

Dos largos, el primero es una extension con proteccion decente de Nido de Halcoles L, mucha tactica de chimenea y puede ser un poco flojo si se salen de la ruta. El segundo largo es increible, muy atipico de Amatitlan con pockets y movimientos fuertes en agarres buenos.

Good mellow route with a nice sequence of holds.

Bonita ruta moderada con una secuencia de agarres interesantes.

The middle one of the 3 routes on this wall.

Bolted by an economics PHD, a little runout so you might want to set a TR from the anchors of Nido de Halcoles R

Armada por un doctor de economia, tiene chapas separadas por lo que es conveniente poner un yo-yo desde Nido de Halcones R para ensayar los movimientos.

Not entirely sure where these are - rumors have it that they are right above the left end of "Sector 3".

Sees little traffic so it keeps densely vegetated.

Via que tiene poco trafico por lo que se mantiene con vegetacion.
