As the man says - the Cavel Bernat. The original route climbs the short ridge past the tree then the left side of the big hanging pillar before moving right to the summit, 3,5+,4 I think. The long side is more impressive http://www.pbase.com/chris_craggs/image/56997882

Can anyone name any of the pinnacles, especially the one on the left with climbers on top?
