[The Pellissier Gully on the east side of the Pointe Lachenal, 3 kb]220m, 5 pitches. Mixed route to the left of the Cecchinel-Jager. 4/5 pitches of ice and mixed. The route seems to be in condition more often than other comparable lines on the face.

Spent nearly an hour digging a trench to the base of the route to allow 4 teams to run past us and enjoy the route in a no gear, no belays, overlapping ropes sort of way. Abandoned ship prior to getting fully engaged in violence or a serious clusterfuck.

The video in the route description here misses out the last pitch. That's the easier left variant. The "normal" route moves right up the rock and is the crux.

Rapped the route from the top of the last pitch, which was a difficult diagonal abseil, with a hard pull through. The rest of the abseils were OK.
