No pics unfortunately, hope someone else will toss some up or I'll get some the next time I'm there. We used this as an acclimatizatioin day climb (and as such it served it's purpose) but felt a bit let down by the sparse info available from the guide book I referred to in the Marylene route section. There is little if any in situ protection and that is what I wanted to point out to others that may want to climb this nice rock tower.
Cheers, Mdog. It was great getting out on it and although we didn't have enough time to do the route, well worth the effort. I'm sure a lot of SPers will like the relative solitude this face has to offer as compared to the S face of Aig. Midi.

Untitled CommentNice page. I first thought this was going to be up on the Grandes Jorasses but Walker, Croz and Whymper were there first.
