Closer shot of the rock. We chose the "Frango a Passarinho" route, a 5.10d 6-pitch 100 meter route, with 5.11a and 5.11b pitches and some overhang traverses, and a 5.12a crux. Because we arrived late to the base of the rock and depended on hitching a ride to get back home we ended up climbing only until the end of the third pitch, which amounted to 60 meters and the hardest pitches. This is a sport-trad sort of route, very technical but very physically demanding as well because most of it is either quite vertical or overhang. Also, very isolated and hard to reach and therefore not climbed very often. It was just us on the rock that day.
