Nabot Leon, Aiguille de la Blatiere West Face / Pilier Rouge


After going on completely the wrong route last week due to being incompetent, and having the wrong guidebook..... here we are again for a second bash. 

Routefinding is infact easy and the climbing superb! Fantastic day out! 

Here are some snaps of Ben and Mel who came out for adventure wednesday.


Up on the first pitch, this route is great with good steady but sustained climbing.

Mel and Ben ending up on the upper slab pitch after a very cool little steep wall. Great atmosphere.

Mel arriving at the 6th Belay...sun coming out

4 long abseils from the top and down we go....

This place looks like it needs a bit of time spent on it with some stunning lines such as Majorette Thatcher etc.
