Description Suggest change

The first line to breach the east face of Slesse, and an impressive attempt in its day, climbed hammerless before camming devices were available.

Climb the spur at the left edge of the east face to its top. Where the wall steepens, move left to a chimney (mixed free and aid), then a steep corner to a snowpatch. Continue up easier terrain to reach the notch between the South Peak and main summit.

Protection Suggest change

Full rack. Hooks useful if aiding. Some of this climb has been subsequently freed.
