Description Suggest change

A slightly slabby very thin finger crack. Get your best smearing/small edges shoes and get ready to jam/crimp on small pods & edges. It's not physically super hard but it fells quite delicate at times.

The lower section is 10b (guidebook). Once the angle lessens, you have a choice: you can keep going up on the slab on spaced out & trickier gear (guidebook says 5.7, the actual route). You can arrange a traverse to the left and & rejoin the end of Gaston Boston (also 5.7, but better gear).

Could use a bit of love (brushing and/or more traffic).

Location Suggest change

Need to go to the climber's right of Voie d'Évitement. The trail will go down & away from the wall, and then back up steeply in a kind of 4th class bushwack. Just to the left of it will be the obvious hand crack of Gaston Boston (5.7). Perdu dans l'Espace is the thinner crack to the left.

Protection Suggest change

Small cams & perhaps a few small nuts for the 10b part. Once you traverse on Gaston Boston a few larger cams. Unsure about the upper slab if going straight.
