8 pitches. Mainly trad, with bolted belays and some bolts on the slabs. Crux pitch 6a+ - lovely crack. The upper slab pitches have radically different grades in the Piola guide vs. the Escalades Choises.
The first pitch is about 60m above the level of the glacier - this is often inaccessible after heavy rain due to wet and unprotectable rock. Walking higher and traversing into the terrace below pitch 3 is recommended.

FA. R. Ghilinia, M. Piola 26/Sep/1983.
