Description: El Misiti was a 13.5 hour ascent. The only climb I know of where one of the approach hazards is a barrío. After hiking straight up and dodging altitude white-dotts, you kiss teh cross (someone hauled that thing up there!). The descent took 2.5 hours sreaming down the sand. It erodes the volcano so don't do this!! Lat/Lon: 16.3°S / 71.4°W; Elevation: 19101 ft / 5822 m
