La Machota Chica, a stiff scramble up this slab is needed to reach the top.

La Machota Chica, a stiff scramble up this slab is needed to reach the top.
For Janet and Eunice, who asked if I ever went to the top of La Machota Chica, shown in recent uploads. Yes, I went up here. Easier and not as steep as it looks from below and the granite gives superb grip. You can stick a limb in the wide crack at the left (shaded) if you ever feel a bit wobbly!

Oh, excellent! The rough rocks against the smooth sky - fabulous! I know B&W isn't your thing, but I think this would be great for that.

I 'm not sure, the slab is featureless enough in colour but perhaps I will experiment to see what you mean! Thank you Diane!

I was breathless at the top, Jenny!
(Mainly because it was a surprisingly hot October day!)
