Nice hike
I've been there twice, first in May and then in July. The second time I turned around after half an hour because a storm was getting closer.
El Tintero is a strange case, considering that it is subjected to pretty much ecological disturbance (agriculture and hunting still takes place, plus a path was cut through the forest when the antennas were installed) that still is very rich in biodiversity, even more than its "wilder" twin hill El Pinal. El Tintero has a richness in salvias, grasses, oaks and pines that at least I haven't seen on any other hill in the region.
