Description
Another classic ceuse pocket climb. Starts with big holds wich slowly get smaller until the bouldery crux at around the 4th bolt. Crank on shallow pockets and smeary feet for a few moves eventually working right to bigger (but still pumpy) pockets and up the final headwall. I find it a little strenuous to hang the draws at the crux, so its better to get your partner to hang them for you.
Location
located just to the right of 'gre blanc' the name is written at its base.
Protection
about 6 or so bolts to a fixed anchor.
