1690m.
Start on the second cone of snow to the right of the top of the 'Col des Avalanches'
Climb grade III/IV rock up the left branch of this Y couloir until you reach a snow patch (or loose rocky ground) traverse over the ridge to your right to reach the large neve on the south west face, follow this to the small breche just to the right of Pic Lory. Follow the ridge to the summit.
Reverse the ridge past Pic Lory to get to the Col on the other side of Pic Lory (you can do a 25 m rap here). Then descend the normal route down from here.
