Description Suggest change

Very nicely bolted crack climb on the Dente De L'Air. First pitch (5.9 - 5c) is the easiest, then leading up to two pitches of 6a. Bolts are very generous, and the climb is a lot of jugs or crimps, with a few nice crack moves. Beautiful introduction to the Gorge!

A bit committing since you have to rap down to the base of the route, and the best way out is up. 

Location Suggest change

Starts the farthest right line of the routes in the upper section of La Dente de L'Air. After 2-3 bolts on the first pitch, follow the bolts up and LEFT; up and right goes to a slightly harder (6a+) route called Le Petit Chat.

Protection Suggest change

Bolts, lots of bolts. Up to 15 bolts per pitch.
