Description

Again a long access line with a 1 hour and 45 minutes steep walk from "Les Portelles" lifts area.

Follow "Les Portelle's front chairlift line", good steep terrain skills are important as a long hike is needed into a lot of different terrain.

This time pass over the Pic d'Arcalis, the summit of which can be often frozen, making the hike more dangerous. The first gully on the right is the entrance of the line, good navigation skills needed to spot the entrance.

This line is only for experts as the entrance is into a cliff (an ice axe can help).

The cliff must be taken in order to get into the gully where good control is needed.

The line continues into the gully and loses steepness.

Good snow conditions often present due to the face exposure but cliff part can be icy. Avalanche risk is huge over here due to the steepness so only go when conditions are right.

The line finishes on the green piste "Megaverda" which leads back to "La Coma" ski area.
