Awesome

Incredible location deep within BBRSP. The majority of the route is straightforward until you deviate from regular roads near the La Posta site.

Awesome site, a triumph is required to get to it.

Awesome site deep in BBRSP.  Most of the path is easy until you leave normal roads at the La Posta site.  After the first descent on a very rocky ledge, its mostly managing to keep on the path and navigate a few obstacles.  Once you get there, a great site with a shade-covered table etc.  Shared toilets short walk away.
