Description

La Bonida is one of the most beautiful and alluring peaks in the Grand Tourmalet.

Its two parallel east facing couloirs call to any adventurer who sees them.

The center couloir is accessed by gaining the Col and moving right up along the ridge to the top.

It can also be quickly booted up from the bottom.

It's a bit faster to boot it.
