Descrizione

A nice route with the gear always within sight, making the line obvious while keeping its alpine character. There are enough options to add protection when the bolts are a bit far apart. The route joins the south sub-summit of Grand Darrey.

Approach

From the A Neuve hut, go around the equipped passage with chains and climb the moraine opposite, then a scree zone toward the Essettes col. The route starts on a small ledge (or just below when the snow has melted), after climbing 20 meters up the col slope. The first 3 bolts are visible and the name is written at the foot of the route.
