A long traverse access line to reach the top of the line. Turn right from red slope "La Balma", hike the little ridge and ski all along the traverse as the line is almost at the end of the ridge, where you can see "Els Feixans" ski lift. The line itself is really steep all along with some big rocks. It also gets a lot of sun so make sure there's enough snow before heading in as this is East facing. Avalanche risk is pretty important due to the steepness of the line. An extra hazard to be aware of on this line is the fact the line joins a slope which can bring some collision risks. It finishes on the green piste "La Basera" which leads back to the bottom of Arcalis ski area.
