Cuernos del Diablo, Lower Buttress

Bolivia, Cordillera Quimsa Cruz
Author: Davide Vitale. Climb Year: 2019. Publication Year: 2020.

During the first weekend in May, with Peñas Adventure School students Hernan Layme, Maria Teresa Llampa, Danitza Mamani,  Ever Mamani, Reyna Paye, and Jorge Vargas, Daniele Assolari and I traveled to Viloco and Kuchu Mocoya base camp. On the nice granite buttress (sometimes mossy) below the northwest face of Cuernos del Diablo, we climbed five pitches (200m, UIAA V) to reach the huge terrace from which established routes begin. From there we rappelled, as that same night we had to make the long drive back to Peñas.
