Rockfax Description
E2. A great long expedition (12 pitches) which follows the lower ramp-line below Pared de la Taula, then continues up the slabs right of the diamond of Pared de la Cima. There are a couple of 6a pitches on it, and a diagonal abseil at the start of pitch 3 - take a full rack of gear. Pitch grades are 1) 5, 2) 5+, 3) 6a, 4) 5+, 5) 4, 6) 3, 7) 5, 8) 3, 9) 5, 10) 6a, 11) 5+, 12) 5+. © Rockfax

βeta: E2 proper trad, take a full rack. Route finding not straight forward, lots of traversing, needs a competent second, some loose rock and escape would be problematic. Rockfax topo isn't accurate. Start at white arrow and circle symbol. P1 5a we went right at peg, probably should have gone left. P2 4c to abseil station Sketchy abseil pitch, only about 5m down not as far as topo shows P3 6a+ steep P4 5c moving left P5 4c continue up ramp P6 4c scrambling then a short steep step to terrace Scramble up descent route until level with a small white arrow on the left P7 4a traverse left to belay by white arrow P8 6a up then head left P9 5c continue working left P10 5a continue left to broken ground P11 6a diagonally right then up steeply to belay P12 5c slightly right and up to top out | ||
