P1

P2

P3

P4 WI4. Ice, up to the base of a more vertical wall of ice.

P5 WI4/4+. Continue in direction of the final pillar, which should start looking quite impressive now.

P6 WI5+ 60m. the final pilar, and approximativement 50m of pure vertical ice.

Rappel in the route. Abalakovs, rock horns and some old fixed pieces of slings and ropes should take you down safely. Don't hesitate to replace suspicious gear. Rapping pitch 2 is a bit tricky (the snow slope). The best way is to walk backward the snow slope with tension in the rappel, and then clip a little tree as a redirection 5m before getting to the last rappel anchor. Falling during this sideway rappel and going for a swing might be tragic.

Location Suggest change

You can see the final pilar most of the approach. The fist part of the approach is shared with the Pomme d'Or trail, but continue on the left. Pretty steep snow slope.

Protection Suggest change

Trad rack for a full pitch of mixed climbing, ice rack for 60m long ice pitches.
