Itinerary description

Diablo Canyon
Cañón del Diablo,
Parque Nacional Sierra de San Pedro Mártir, Baja California, Mexico
A difficult, very remote hiking route.
Hiking alone can be quite risky since there are a lot of obstacles, short climbs and in case of any problem, help is very unlikely.
Route finding difficulty and bushwhacking greatly slow down the speed of progress.
The route was made alone in extreme heat 35-40 C
3 Days
I didn't have a 4WD car, so the route starts from the heart of the desert.

Rope

After climbing the rope, here you need to make a slippery short traverse over polished granite. A fall can be fatal. If you are alone it is better to do a short climb higher where there are good holds.

The pendulum is the first real obstacle in the canyon. Walking up to the right can be quite demanding
