Described to me by area developer Carlos Logrono as the best route at Rodellar, this route is 120' tall and overhangs the base by 75', my proudest send in Europe (so far)

Ben getting ready to hike up to the Raco de Misa, the wall on the left, a stout 20 minute uphill trudge, like 1/3 of the hike to Ceuse...this is home to the famous Hidrophobia 14a that Katie Brown and Tommy Caldwell flashed, also home to the even more awesome Els Elements 14a, both of which have been onsighted in the same day by 2 different guys, Ramonet and E. Marin... an incredible crag with a great selection of routes from 6c to 8b+

The orange-streaked walls on the left are overhanging, super high quality pocketed limestone, 1/2 hour from Barcelona with a 30 min. hike, if you're into 80-100' high enduro pocket climbing, don't miss it. Did a 12b there called Discordia that goes up the fatty orange streak that I swear is one of the best routes I've ever done.

Climbers on p.3 of Hotline (5.12c or 5.11b A0) Elephant Rock YNP. The pitches are 11b inch and-a-quarter to 12c face traverse, 10b handcrack, 5.9 corner, weird 10d flare squeeze thing and 10b face to the top of the pinnacle.

A brilliant addition to an already sick collection of crags, the Dark Side is like a steeper and more pocketed version of the Undertow wall at the Motherlode. The Solar Collector is a few minutes walk from here and is awesome too...
