Cerro La Campana
contribuciones by Christian Stange Marcus, Daniel Schrader

There have been put up some routes, but rangers once removed all bolts, apparently after an accident. It seems activities are going on again as people say there are new routes or new bolts. Some routes are supposed to be forbidden, some are allowed. Better do not ask the rangers. We are currently waiting for more information.
