Vie in Spagna del grado selezionato

Same start and same end as "Mercenaris del Passat". There is also a variant with a different finish, equipped by Chris Sharma.

First repeat by Adam Ondra, Feb-2016

An alternative start to to La Fabela but with the same first anchor (where there is also a good rest). The second part is the same as "La Fabela pa la Enmienda", linked it is called Catxasa R2.

Repeats by Stefano Ghisolfi (13/01/2018) and Daniel Woods (25/02/2018).

Comparte gran parte del recorrido con su vecino "Gran Guggenheim".

Shares a large part of the route with its neighbor "Gran Guggenheim".

This route connects Pachamama 9a+ and Papichulo 9a+ and was described by Adam Ondra as demanding "incredible power endurance without any rest."

Initially this connection seemed utterly extreme - perhaps even 9b+ like neighbouring Dura Dura freed by Ondra in 2013 - but was then rendered more "humane" when Ondra discovered a new sequence to get across the traverse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVlGxVE_0uc

A combination of 'Seta ibérica' and 'Circo ibérico'.

A combination of the boulder Picacho (8B+) with "Alí Hulk (extension)".

As Iker Pou describes it: "a perfect roof, well not quite perfect, because it even descends, about 20 meters long across a series of pockets. A authentic ‘fiesta’ of monodoits and two-finger pockets across a roof that is scary just to look at." The climbing is obviously ferocious and extremely physical: "Very few footholds, and those that exist are very bad so you have to constantly dyno them from one pocket to the next."

A 60 meters long endurance challenge that connects three routes. 'Pata Negra' at the beginning, the crux of 'No pain no gain' and ends at the lower off of 'Botanics'.

Downgrade to 9a+ proposed by Sébastien Bouin and to 9a+/9b by Martin Tekles in 2023.

Las Meninas to the second anchor.

A left finish to "Café Colombia".

To the second anchor of "The Journey".

Repeats by Adam Ondra, Alex Megos, Stefano Ghisolfi.

Climbs the cave from left to right.

A combination of "The Journey" and "Café Colombia".

Direct start of Estado Critico.

The route has a first part made of 25 very sustained movements graded 9a+, followed by a second 8c part with 12 movements including a dyno.

A knee bar has been found in the first crux (the sequence was downgraded from 8a to 7c+), however a hold has broken higher up on the dyno which makes it significantly harder to throw. All in all the route is still considered 9b

Described by Jonathan Siegrist as "Absolutely incredible route with no place to hide. Resistant like hell."

The route links a section of 8c into a steep and crimpy upper half to create a 45-meter endurance test-piece.

It was the first 9b to be freed by a female climber: Angy Eiter.

A "hard and beautiful" king line test piece put up by Chris Sharma. Originally graded 9b+, J. Schubert has suggested it could be a hard 9a+. Felipe seemed to confirm the 9b grade.

"El bloque en sí podemos desglosarlo como 3 movimientos de 8A o 8A+, seguidos de 3 movimientos de 8B, para luego hacer un 7C+ algo psicológico." (Alberto Rocasolano)

El bloque más duro de Galicia? Repeticiones?

The hardest known boulder problem in Zaralejo, Spain. The V15 Rating is only for the boulder when using the low start.

A sit start at the bottom of the cave continuing with the end of Ali Baba, exiting through the classic exit on the left.

Same finish as Entropía.

Kemena “es un bloque explosivo de fuerza de dedos, pasos físicos y tensión corporal; empieza con seis pasos 'fáciles' para cambiar el ritmo con cuatro pasos duros y terminar con un mantle 'fácil'”, describe Rubén Díaz.

Kemena significa "valor" o "valentía", en euskera
