A French “Roc Aventure Programme” team from the Fédération Française de la Montagne et de l’Escalade (FFME) completed a new route on the left side Candameña Canyon, about half an hour from Basaseachi Falls, in October. Six young climbers—Kevin Aglaé, Gaël Marty, Elsa Ponzo, Laurent Thevenot, Marion Thomas, and Sebastien Valran—and two FFME guides, Jonathan Crison and Antoine Pêcher, established the six-pitch route: Rattlesnake (200m, 7c, 6c obl). It is completely bolt-protected.
