5 out of 5 stars One of the best

If you look up 5.13a in the dictionary you should see this climb. It is the essence of the grade. Good diversity of movement, technical, and powerful. When I lived in SLC this was my favorite lap route.
P.S.- Ignore all the down grading being done here on RC.com of the Eldiablo wall routes by someone who has not actually done these routes. I was one of the most sand bag graders in SLC and I always thought that Malvado was without a doubt 5.13a.
