Description Suggest change

A great climb, with three long and interesting pitches.  WI 3 or 4 depending on the route chose for the final pitch

P1 - 35m sustained at just less than vertical.  Bolted belay on the right side rocks
P2 - 45m with significant vertical steps.  Bolted belay on the right side rocks
P3 - a transition pitch (quickly finish off the initial fall then snow).  Belay at bolts on the left side
P4 - Proceed over the step and then veer right up the wall.  30m with multiple options.  Going up the steepest part is WI4, staying further left is WI3 (or could be even easier if the leader stays in the gully the whole time)

Rap from an anchor on a tree at the top of the steepest part then from the belay stations.  Two ropes required.

Location Suggest change

At the very end of the valley.  Park at the B &B Lo Glassier and proceed south on the track (which would be a trail in summer).  The track leads directly to the climbs in the area.  The approach takes ~45 minutes and gains significant altitude.  Gomorra is the next fall to looker's right after arriving at the wall.
