To get to the base, you'll need to go down about 50m from the start of "CEPI" following a track along the margins of the mountain.
Pitch 1: 40m; Careful in the first pitch as there are frequently nests of hornets in some of the cracks/holes.
Pitch 2: 40m;
Pitch 3: 25m;
Pitch 4: 45m;
Pitch 5: 40m; The route ends at Cisco Kid fourth anchors, so if you climb the last 2 pitches of 'Cisco Kid', you'll reach the summit (total 280m).
Take 12 quickdraws.
There's a variant coming out of the 2nd anchors - the original goes right and finishes on a ledge; the variant goes kind of straight up, missing the ledge and heading straight to the next set of anchors. If you choose to take the variant, make sure your rope is long enough (60m). The variant is usually taken when the original is a bit wet because of the bushy ledge. The variant is a bit harder as well, rating VIsup Brazilian grading.
There is no known route history.
