    Se realiza un diagnostico y evaluacion hidrogeomorfologica y geotecnica de la fachada norte de la Estacion Pico Espejo, (seccion K1-K4) y en general, de las condiciones geologicas del sustrato rocoso de la estacion Pico Espejo, esta corresponde a la quinta estacion del sistema Teleferico localizado en jurisdiccion del Municipio Libertador, estado Merida – Venezuela, con la finalidad de determinar las condiciones geologicas y geotecnicas del substrato de la estacion Pico espejo, a traves de aplicacion de metodos geofisicos no invasivos (GPR – Ground Penetration Radar y Ruidos Sismico Ambiental), evaluacion geomecanica del macizo rocoso (determinacion de compresion simple de macizo rocoso) y geoquimica (Isotopos estables naturales del agua). La integracion de los resultados permitio reconocer un proceso continuo de infiltracion de agua a nivel de roca fresca y fracturada a profundidad de hasta 4 m., con potencial inestabilidad de geotecnica del sustrato por perdida de cohesion y resistencia del macizo rocoso. A hydrogeomorphological and geotechnical diagnosis and evaluation of the north faces of the Pico Espejo´s Station (section K1-K4) and, in general, of the geological conditions of the rocky substrate of the Pico Espejo´s station, this corresponds to the fifth station in the system. Cable car located in the jurisdiction of the Libertador Municipality, Merida state - Venezuela, in order to determine the geological and geotechnical conditions of the Pico Espejo´s station substrate, through the application of non-invasive geophysical methods (GPR - Ground Penetration Radar and Environmental Seismic Noises), geomechanical evaluation of the rock mass and geochemistry (natural stable isotopes of water). The integration of the results allowed recognizing a continuous process of water infiltration at the level of fresh and fractured rock at depths of up to 4 m., With potential geotechnical instability of the substrate due to loss of cohesion and resistance of the rock mass.
