The face right of El Topo, starting up the vague seam. Less-recognised than its famous neighbour, and slightly easier, though with less bolts. Still a wonderful route. Although not used on the first ascent, there are some gear placements on final slab after the last bolt if you don’t fancy the death-fall potential.
