About San Gabriel:
Another climbing area in the Maipo Canyon area, this place looks unspectacular from a distance, it's only once you get up to the rock that the cracks in the granite appear, there are over 20 routes from 5.9 to 5.12 in cracks from finger to offwidth and some dihedrals as well. A3+ aid climbing is also a feature of this area. There are few bolts so friends and camalots will be needed in abundance. You cannot climb here in winter because of the extreme cold due to it's altitude |
