35m. Longer route than its neighbors, the topo says 35m, but it seems many stop at the ledge at 25m (which was the old pitch length on UKC). Stay right and go beyond the ledge and the belay station is 10 metres above. Phonetically in french the route name means "they left me the old belay station". Thankfully, the whole route has recent and tight spaced bolts and yes, a brand new belay station.

βeta: Newer route than the others with some good holds and continued past the slight crux at mid height. Went all the way to back wall (40m) and lowered off on 80m rope. - nice route

βeta: The route is a nice 5a, however the route toughens up at the last 2 bolts to something more like a 5b as the handholds disappear. There is a series of footholds slanting left and up then back right with older bolts, looks like it could be the original, easier line.
