Pilier de la Pissechèvre

P1 (6a): This is the left bolt line. Start up a short corner section, pass a belay and continue up and right to a shared anchor. 

V1 (5c): This is the right bolt line. Climb up a left-facing side of a large corner, continue toward a crack in the roof, and up a small arete to a the belay. 

P2 (5c+): Continue up the face to a comfortable belay. 

P3 (6a): This is a fantastic climb up a steeper section. If you find the movement getting harder than the grade, consider moving to the left. Belay on a comfortable ledge. 

*Move the belay off the top of the first arete to the base of a left-facing corner.

P4 (5c+): Climb up while clipping two bolts. Walk to a second face and continue up. Belay on a right-facing wall below two bolt lines. 

P5 (5c): Startup and make sure to stay left (the right set of bolts is a new route called Gambit and goes at 7a). Great climbing leads to an aesthetic belay at the base of the inspiring next pitch.

P6 (6a+): The money pitch. It's crazy how the best climbing on this route is somehow located in the best position possible. The whole climbing is thoughtful and sustained at the grade. I was surprised by how such great holds were consistently placed in such a beautiful place.

P7 (5b): Walk up to the left, climb a short face with two bolts, and belay at the top with a great view. This is a short pitch.

Descent: Follow the path left from the top of the cliff. It will work its way across and slightly up hand lines while protecting a steep drop-off on the left. Follow the path past the large cairn, where you previously turned, and back to the parking lot.

Right-facing corner at the base of the arete. This is the right of most of the two main climbs. However, make sure to avoid getting on the new 7a called Gambit. See photos for a picture from the base.
