50m, 2 pitches.
The main event! a stunning cascade which forms readily most seasons and is often the first to be climbed in the Megeve region. 50m, which can be done in 1 long pitch, but is best split into two. There is a bolted belay off to the left on the big halfway ledge (also used as an absail station), but the best place to belay is in the cave just below the final curtain. this also has a bolted anchor (if not covered by ice), but has ample space for an ice screw belay too. Exit the cave on either the left (WI 4+) or right (WI 5). Bolt belay/absail anchor off to the left at the top.
Henry Perinet 1977.

βeta: go either very early, or late. if you arrive mid morning when conditions are good there will likely be a queue of 20 people there already! by mid afternoon the masses have usually gone. | βeta? | |
