Along the trail to the summit of Pochoco Hill stands a small memorial dedicated to Ugo Ravera Martini (1926–2008), known as the “Lord of Pochoco” and Grand Master of the Brotherhood of the Red Sticks. His legacy is commemorated on a plaque with a poetic message of respect for the mountain, urging visitors not to litter, burn, or erode the terrain on their descent. This tribute symbolizes the love and care for nature that Ravera fostered among the mountaineers of Santiago, making this hill an emblematic landmark for the local hiking community.
