Description

Whilst easily accessible this line should not be underestimated.

When conditions are sure and you are comfortable skiing in this steep terrain, this gem of a run starts by following the Charles Bozon piste.

After the col which the piste passes through, continue straight under the Brévent east face and enter the top of the couloir.

The descent is narrow and impressive in its constant steep angle.

Keep on the left through the middle section to avoid a small cliff section.

The couloir widens and after traversing left the Planpraz parking area is reached.

The sunny aspect means you need to choose your timing wisely.

Make sure there is enough snow all the way down to Chamonix or it's a long walk down!
