Picacho Del Diablo - Water Conditions & Regional Beta

by Eric Rak » Mon Feb 13, 2006 8:14 pm

I'm in the process of planning a trip to climb Picacho Del Diablo at the end of March and am looking for an update on the current water situation in Parque Nacional San Pedro Martyr, specifically Canon Del Diablo and the surrounding mountains. Considering the extremely dry winter the southwest has experienced, we're wondering how much water will be available for filtering.

Also, does anybody have any beta on the surrounding eastern canyon approaches? We have done the standard eastern approach up Canon Del Diablo and are searching for possibilites of new routes and approaches. I've heard rumors of a 200' cliff obstacle in Canon Providencia -or- Canon Diablito and would be interested if any technical rock routes had been done as an approach to Del Diablo. Any additional beta or TRs of 4th or 5th class ridge traverses including Pinnacle Ridge would be helpful as well.

Thanks!

Eric
