Portelle's north face

This is a long access line until the start of the run, as a short but steep walk is required from "Les Portelles" lifts area. Follow "Les Portelle's front chairlift line", walk is not easy and get a lot of steepness with some fresh snow. 1 hour walk can be needed where good steep terrain skills are important. Continue straight after the big ridge until the right gully where the line starts, it is really steep- up to 55 degrees. Due to the time of the hike a good weather window is needed, even more important for the descent of the face. The gully is the main guide and needs to be followed, remember left side is a cliff and any mistakes in navigation can be fatal. The line gets some good amount of snowfall and avalanche risk is pretty important into this area of the mountain due to high steepness. The line finishes on the green piste "Megaverda" which leads back to "La Coma" ski area.
