| The whole climb was a lot of fun. First to finish the route on the day and the crowd on the platform all wanted to have their picture taken with us. | |

| hasemann | Excellent route! Date Climbed: Aug 12, 2009 | |
| A very beautiful route and the weather were perfect. It was my first real alpine route and it was great fun! Did the first half of the route with crampons but it wasn't really necessary as most of the snow had melted. | |

| Florence and I enjoyed this beautiful climb arriving to A. du Midi just to pick up the train back to Chamonix. A symbolic climb as it was my 1rst time guiding, alpine initiation put into practice for Florence and a rende-vous "message" promise from my previous climb 3 years later to Florence. | |

| MountaingirlBC | SUPER fun climb Date Climbed: Jul 7, 2008 | |
| Climbed this as a warmup/acclimatization climb but it ended up being one of the most fun climbs I have ever done. Only wish it was longer. Climbed it in crampons. Placed one of those new mini tricams only because it was new and I wanted to. Highly highly recommended! | |

| JanG | Awesome climb Date Climbed: Jul 7, 2009 | |
| Greatly enjoyed this climb with my son Christoph (assisted by Eric, a local guide). We had dramatic views of the cliffs along a great route. The 4c crux was definitely hard to overcome (wearing crampons is definitely essential). We were amazed at the number of tourists watching from the deck at the end! | |

| Heikki | Difficult conditions Date Climbed: Mar 12, 2009 | |
| We climbed the mixed slope up to gendarme at 3731m and then turned around. I felt bit sick and there were a LOT of snow and quite strong wind. No one else on the ridge that day =) We just made it to last cabine down. | |
