Description
P1, 5.8 : Se faire un chemin à travers la végétation dans les premiers mètres pour atteindre une face contenant quelques crux surprenant.
P2, 5.9+ : Attaquer la dalle parsemée de magnifique cristaux qui ressortent comme des petits cubes. C'est très constant, on entre facilement dans la zone. J'en aurait prit un autre 30 m. Bien qu'on voit que la voie a été très bien brossé à l'ouverture, le champignon (corn flake) repousse tranquillement. Étrangement ça n'affecte pas trop la grimpe, go for it. (2025)
P3, 5.10c : Super propre, petit problème de bloc pour passer le petit toit sur de très bon jugs. Suivi d'une très belle dalle. Il a de l'ambiance dans ce coin là !
P4, 5.8 : Encore une belle dalle constante.

P1, 5.8: Make your way through the vegetation in the first few metres to reach a face containing some surprising cruxes.
P2, 5.9+: Tackle the slab dotted with magnificent crystals that stand out like little cubes. It's very consistent and easy to get into flow state. I would have taken another 30 m. Although you can see that the route was very well brushed at the opening, the corn flake is slowly growing back. Strangely enough, it doesn't affect the climbing too much, so go for it (2025).
P3, 5.10c: Super clean, small boulder problem to get past the small roof on very good jugs. Followed by a very nice slab. There's a lot of air in this part!
P4, 5.8: Another nice, consistent slab.
Location
From the parking, look at the tibetan bridge that cross a canyon. The perfect wall to the left where the fixed rappel line go down is called Yves Laforest. 200-300 m left of it, the a very similar wall facing the same way. That's l'âme en tension. Left of that ther is a bulge with a clean line brush from the base to the very top of the cliff. That is Frivole!! It is left of a huge roof.

To get there, take the same path to Yves Laforest, at some point, you decide left or right. Left go to ''Les Arches''. Take that path and follow the yellow dots on the rock until you are close from the Via Ferrata entrance. On your right side, there is a path going up very steep in bushes, take it to the base of the route.
