Description
This is a long access line where half day is needed - turn right on top "Les Combes" chairlift and follow "Tête du Géant: North Couloir".
The line is really steep to climb where a climbing gear is welcome, to go until the top of the mountain this might take about 1 hour and half or more.
The line gets a lot of sun so make sure there's enough snow before heading in as this is on top of a rock area and base of the line is rocks.
Avalanche risk is pretty high due to the altitude around here but one unusual hazard to be aware of on this line is the ridge into your right where mistakes can be fatal, snow can be frozen in case of a lack of snow.
The line finishes "Happy valleys bis line" which leads back to "Cornebois" chairlift.
