Description
A big thank you to Guy Parent for opening his project so someone else could do a first ascent. This is a very generous gesture.
Guy found a really nice line in Fakir. The first bolt is quite high so a stick clip is advised. There are three cruxy sections. The first one not long after starting the route is a powerful one. The second one comes after an easy section where you can rest and is more techy. The third one is more of a pumpy one. You'll need to read the end properly if you want to keep it at the grade.
One of the best lines at Tranchant but the top might be wet very often in the Spring and after rain.
