Pilier du guetteur

L1 / 5.5 First pitch is very easy but not equipped. Go on the right side of the spur
L2 / 5.10b Go straight and then slightly to the right. The belay is on a sort of ledge.
L3 / 5.10c Cross to the right by a dihedral, after 13 feet up, cross to the left (overhang) to continue diagonally to the left until a tree, the belay is on the edge.
L4 / 5.9 Follow more or less the ridge .
L5 / 5.9 Climb on the fractured slabs of the ridge.
L6 / 5.9+ Climb on slabs to the top, the crux is a slightly overhanging block but well protected.

The point of view is magnificant from the top of this needle.

Descent
From the top, cross straight on the flat summit to the slope, continue to the east to reach the downhill path in the small gorge that you can see.

You can reach this route by bottom of abseiling from the "Aiguille du Gué"
Or by walk by a path above hotels in the entrance of the gorges.
The point of view is magnificant from the top of this needle.

This multiptich is quite well bolted, especially in the harder sections, you need 8 quickdraws
