Ensenada, Baja California
Picacho del Diablo (also logged as Mountain of the Devil) is a remote peak in Baja California where the approach itself is the expedition: about 19 miles and roughly 96 hours round trip, with fifth class rock and up canyon travel on the way. RopeWiki lists it as a point of interest rather than a rated technical canyon.
Parties can approach from the Pacific side to the west or the Sea of Cortez side to the east; the Pinnacle Ridge route is the one described as technical, needing rope and hardware unless a party chooses to free solo the fifth class sections. No permit or red tape information is published on the page.
