βeta: A linkup from when they weren't fashionable (late 90s) is to climb this to about third height and traverse left along the chert band to finish up Reve d'un Corbeau and clip the Monoculture belay. Known as 'Reve des Femme Blonde" at about 6c | βeta? | |

βeta: Some seepage made the middle section... interesting! The top is strenuous if you miss the undercut crimp under the ledge. | ||
