Arête des Papillons
Jun 27, 2025 · 8:15: Midi lift 10:10: End of Papillons 11:30: Summit of Peigne 12:30: Lunch above the Gendarme 3009m 2:00: Back on the glacier 2:15: Midi lift Arête de Papillons was awesome! Secure climbing and bomber rock. Peigne normal route was meh. 1 cool splitter pitch to start it off, after that the rock quality was fine but not great, the climbing wasn’t very splitter and the summit was a bit underwhelming. Papillons: 4 stars. Peigne: 2 stars.

Guiffra-Monaci
May 18, 2025 · Lead / Onsight. Led the whole thing, w/ Edouard and his brother. We started via an obvious right facing corner, the first big obvious corner when approaching the route, which put us at an anchor maybe 10m right of the official start of P2 (the 5.9 corner w/ chopped bolts) and that was perfect for hauling since the end of P2 finished almost directly above this belay. P4 starts with a bolt, so no wide cams are needed, and there are tons of gear options outside the wide crack for the remainder of the pitch.

Rapped from bolted anchor after Braille Book 5.8+ chimney pitch (P4?) straight down to Blinded P3 anchor, from there rapped down and right around the corner to Perfect Vision P2 anchor, then from there back to the base of Book of Job. Last 2 raps were rope stretchers with a 70m, tie knots! Rack: doubles .2-#4. Brought the 5 but it wasn’t helpful, there are thinner cracks all over this thing. No need to stack. These photos you see on MP are for show. Just good ole squeezing and stemming.
