Recommended Routes El Potrero Chico - Rock Climbing - Spadout.com Recommended Routes Routes which I have climbed here recently and strongly recommend are listed below. If you want more suggestions just go grab a liter of beer at Posada camp ground and talk to other climbers who are always extremely friendly.
Space Boyz - Eleven pitches ranging from 5.8 to 5.10d. Great summit about 4 foot by 4 foot area! Fun exposure on the 5.10d pitch. Final pitch is an offwidth crack. 20 second approach. The route is mainly face climbing. The route is the water streak found directly in front of the pavilion making it very easy to find. This route tends to be very popular so decide on a backup route. The route is on Jungle Wall. La Estrillita - Twelve pitches ranging from 5.6 to 5.11a. Summit includes a palm tree providing a prop for excellent pictures. Five minute approach. Snot Girlz - Seven pitches ranging from 5.9 to 5.10d. Easy to find on Moto Wall (name is written at the base of the route). The first pitch is a solid 5.10d and can be a little bit of a shock first thing in the morning. Ten minute approach. Will the Wolf Survive - Four pitches ranging from 5.9 to 5.10a. Easy, fun route ending on the top of a massive flake. A little hard to find. About a 15 minute approach. Directly before it is a great two pitch climb (5.9). Jungle Mountaineering - Like runouts? If so this is for you. 15 - 20 feet between bolts on easy terrain (5.9 – 5.10a). Great climbing none the less and a local classic. Found on Jungle Wall to the left of the pavilion. Just look for the first bolt approx. 15-20 feet off the ground. Pangia - A classic single pitch on the sunny-side of the spires. 5.11d hueco pump fest with a great no hands rest.
