Good Route
climbed from Embalse de Cavallers and down in a single day. Fantastic clear day with superb views from the summit. Still lots of snow on the steep upper slopes (axe and crampons required) despite being early July. The bridge across the river above the reservoir has been washed away, and with the river in spate swollen by melt-water from the hills above the crossing was treacherous.

Simple ascend
with two friends. For both it was their first 3000er. Excellent weather. Good snow condition (except in the way back, when it was too soft).
