 The "Iruelas"-sectors seen from the other side of the lake.

 

 The sector "Familia Iskariote" early in the morning...

 

... and also the sectors "Hulk", "Arrastrao" and "Linea di Fuga".

 

 "Linea die Fuga" and sandy beaches, what more can a boulderers heart look for?

 

 Also here the climbing is mostly on "patatas", pebbles inserted in the granite.

 The sectors "Castillo" seen from "Valle Iruelas".

 The sector "Filosofa di Necios" from far...

In the sector "Extasis Liquido" can be found some of the most beautiful problems of Burguillo.
