Tlatelolco (9a) 5.14d receives its first ascent by Leo Boe.


On Sunday, February 16, Norwegian climber Leo Boe achieved the first ascent of "Tlatelolco", making it the hardest route with an ascent in El Salto and one of the ten hardest in all of Mexico. This 43-meter-high route, located in La Boca, was bolted in 2019 by David Ramiro (Davidzillo) and had remained an unclimbed challenge until now.


Leo Boe successfully linked all the moves on "Tlatelolco", proposing a grade of 9a (5.14d), making it the hardest route on El Salto.


El Salto, known for its limestone walls with unique formations and its challenging sport and multi-pitch routes, has been the stage for historic ascents in Mexican sport climbing.

This route is still awaiting a second ascent to confirm the grade.
