The prominent dihedral seen from the national park office. Finishes at piton anchor.

Go carefully to first bolt which is about 5m up. Run out slab climbing on average quality rock. Starts around corner and up hill from gully

Known locally as "the easiest rock climb in El Chalten", at least, it is the easiest multi-pitch. Has been climbed in winter with ice axes and crampons.

From the wooden bridge walk south towards the old orange bridge/flying fox thing. Take first small branch trail you come to, just before the orange flying fox, the track leads to a massive boulder field from significant rockfall, the climb starts just up and right from the debris field.

The climb is recognisable by the large smooth slab comprising the top third which has a right trending diagonal crack with a belay cave half-way.

Apparently no harder than 6a.

To descend, from the final anchor, walk north along the ledge for a few metres to a rap station. It would be awkward to abseil from the final anchor and hit the previous belay due to the diagonal nature of that pitch.

Start at fence post at left end of main wall. Up past 10 bolts. Crux is getting past the 9th bolt. Previously "Top Rope Problem 2".

3m right of fence post (at left end of main wall), starting at a triangular ledge at head height. Up past 9 bolts to lower-offs.

8m right of fence post (at left end of main wall). Start at dihedral, up and out to 2nd bolt on face, easy slabbing until finish above scoop (protected by 9th bolt).

Diagonal right crack and ramp. Start 5m right of "Main Wall Bolted 4" past bush and crack/groove. Crux is between first 2 bolts with side clings either side. Awkward to clean the route as it wanders ~6m right to shared lower-offs.

1m right on pocketed slab wall to shared anchors

where the track meets the cliff, up r diagonal grooves

Primer largo es un 4+ de 15 mts, el segundo largo es un 6a de 15 mts y el 3er largo es un 6a de 20 mts.

At far left side of slabs, directly in front of east-west road coming past Koonek hostel. 6 bolts up to 2 rings, can scramble off left from top.

5 bolts up to 2 rings, 1st 5m is just a scramble.

On slabs left of main wall. 3m left of large thick flake.

5 bolts up to 2 rings. Diagonally up and right. Walk-off left.

Line just left of the main section of wall.

Right-most route - on the grey rock.

ED 6+ A2 90°

A mixed climb where the crux is often the overhanging serac at the bergshrund.

Climbs the striking red dihedral to easy ground, then 2 pitches at 6a on summit tower.

From the cave at Laguna Sucia, get into the glacier and traverse until the base of the snow corridor. 3 pitches, 150m, 50° in snow, until the base of the lower dihedral. 4 pitches, 5.10a. 200m, until the base of the upper dihedral. 3 pitches, 5.10b. 150m, to the summit.
