Description 

This is one of the more popular climbs at Frey due to its proximity to the refugio, the difficulty, amazing summit, and quality climbing.

Face climb up and slightly to the left to a short crack that leads into the left facing dihedral that can barely be seen from the start of the climb. Follow this to the top. There is a bolted anchor about 5m below the needled summit and its about a 25m rap back to the ground.

Location 

The routes starts on the left end of the pedestal on the west face, just left of Socotroco.

Protection 

Single set of cams plus a set of nuts should do the trick.
