This route starts with a climb to the Breche du Contade, traverse, and a rolling bowl descent (shared with The Domes) where there are a few side options. Then two choices to boot up to the top of the Prade Verde Bowl are shown at www.couloirquest.com. These each lead to a different short couloir entrance to the bowl. Then a pleasent ski out into La Mongie.
