Details
Description
This route follows the arete and face around the corner to the left of Goulara. Sustained and interesting climbing with great exposure! One 5.10a move followed by mostly-5.8 climbing.
Clip the first three bolts of Goulara, turn the corner and follow bolts to the top.
The crux of the route is right off the ground and unprotected--bring a stick-clip.
Consider leading the first six bolts of Economique, extending the seventh with a long runner, and finishing on the anchors of Goulara--this is a great way to TR Economique's classic nextdoor neighbor.
Protection
#2 cam to protect the start and 7 bolts to fixed anchor (the top anchor consists of a 1/2" rawl and a 3/8" wedge bolt equipped with mussy hooks).
Climbing to the first bolt involves a 5.10a move over an ugly landing. Falling would be disastrous. All but the boldest climbers should bring a 1-2" cam or a stick-clip.
