Description Suggest change

Grades and lengths according to guide book (translated to YDS):

1. 5.10a, 33m
2a. 5.10b, 35m
2b. Traverse via static rope
3. 5.10b, 38m
4. 5.9, 35m
5. 5.10a, 25m

Looks like there are additional anchors on the P3 . If you don't pay attention to the listed lengths and use them, you may end up either with 6 pitches or a pretty long (60m) P5 in which case not only you won't be able to see your partner but likely have problems with voice communication as well.

P5 Seems to have the sharpest rock of them all.

Suggested rappel is the same as for Modeste route. When you reach the top walk to the right a hundred feet or so to the cairn marking the top anchors of Modeste route. Guidebook details rappel as follows:

1. 40m
2. 20m
3. Walk 20m to the right
4. 40m
5. 40m

Be careful as the wall has a lot of vegetation and good potential for stuck rope, especially if you use 2 shorter ropes instead of one 80m rope.

Guidebook also suggests a walk off towards Ourania and Simplegades if you want to skip the rappel, but I don't know how long this is going to take as it doesn't look like there's a well defined trail.
