Description

This line is the easiest of the couloirs that descend from the Testa Grigia.

Although it's the easiest is quite difficult indeed, it could be a first approach to a good ski mountaineer that wants to try steep skiing.

It's a remote itinerary far from lifts so you have to be completely autonomous.

The slopes are wide and gentle at the beginning then you'll have to ski a steep couloir to access again ample slopes.

Stay on the right and reach Hochene Stei, those are summer stables, and then reach the wood just above Gressoney La Trinitè.
