Access Issue: SEPAQ has closed this area to climbing for the 2020-? seasons
Details
SEPAQ has closed this area to climbing for the 2020-? seasons. They say there is a land access issue for the approach trail, which is also closed to hiking. SEPAQ was unsure if it would open again next year. Contact your FQME friends to lobby for access - Vache Noire offers some of the best ice in the region!
Description
Find the start of the Via Ferrata (metal steps).
Climb the obvious and very inviting ice line just above those steps.
Continuous and straight forward with a spicier exit.
The first few meters can be thin for screws but you can always(or not),clip a draw on one of the metal steps for protection.You can also put a yellow Alien or BD .4 if still thin at about 7-8 m then short to medium length screws will do.
Fun climb!!!
