Easy approach to the starting pitch in the gully with very little snow.

l1 – Very, very thin in the central (at limit). You can go central and then left against the rock and jump (traverse) over to the right part to find solid ice. The central ice breaks easily and water running under it.

Snow scramble with some small passages on ice for about 100 m on snow with stands during the way to use. Still take care since there are a lot of holes on the way if you do not want to get wet.

l2 – 60 m pitch on very mixed ice conditions and some delicate movements, beautiful pitch!

Another 40 m of snowscramble until you reach the final part

l3 – We did a central and left line (little mixed) since the right upper part is very hollow with thin ice, water running under it. Thin exit!

All the stands must be considered before use!

Note: Possible a little more difficult then 4?

Satisfaction = ***** since we also saw an “AQUILA” about 30 m of us
