400m, 14 pitches. with plenty of ambience. Topo at http://www.chablais-grimpe.com/index_french.html The bolting is erratic and becomes more so higher up (first pitches ok, later on belays only with pegs). Fortunately the climbing becomes easier later on, though some pitches feel harder than the 4+ grade they get. The final pitch - exiting to the left of the main wall - is a bit of a gem. Starts from the top of the pile of rubble and avalanche above the chalet chardonniere. Take the path leading up from the chalet and then traverse in as this is easier than walking directly up the rubble.
