Description
A fantastic and varied route that can be easily approached from the campground. A great representation of granite slab and face climbing, with some bonus crack climbing along the way. Comfortably bolted for those unsure of the grade. P4 tends to be the crux with a steep boulder problem to start and a beautiful lieback in a large flake to follow. Longest pitch takes 13 draws.
9 pitches to the summit as follows:
P1: 5c 40m
P2: 6a 40m
P3: 5c 38m
P4: 6b 30m
P5: 6a 35m
P6: 6a 30m
P7: 5c 32m
P8: 6a+ 40m
P9: 6a 35m

Descent: Follow the obvious trail left (exposed in places, with cable in place for protection) and back around and down to the campground. Rappelling is also an option but requires 2 x 50m ropes
Location
Cross the river and approach to the base of the obvious large crack (Fissure d'Ailefroide). to the left of the main crack, there is a white plaque on the wall for the start of the regular trad route "Snoopy". To find the start of this route, "Snoopy Direct", move to the left about 15 meters along the trail to an obvious clearing below the first bolt of the route.
