Chris Sharma has done the FA of Pachamama, 9a+ in Oliana.
It’s a 50 meter route and considered hard for the grade.

The first 2/3 is maybe 9a+ by itself…After there is a good rest and maybe 8b+ or 8c to the top.

Sharma said:
"I’m still a bit confused over the grade. It’s definitely harder than Papichulo and all the other F9a+ routes I’ve done in Spain but I’m not sure if it’s F9b… the resistant style of climbing on the route isn’t quite the best style for me and I can imagine other people being better suited… For now I’d say it’s hard 9a+"
