Team 'Mountain Drop Offs' went out today for some hot rock on the Aiguille Rouges. Another route on the must do list was the Frison Roche, so up we went. Great climbing, found the crux tricky! Then amazing and beautiful climbing on the final pitch, I think this is one of my favourtie pitches of climbing! Stunning moves.
After, we had time to get on another route, so we headed for Crakoukass, a relatively new route (2000 ish), halfway down the Charles Bozon piste. Didnt want to walk down so summited the first two pillars then bailed to get the cablecar. Magnificent, exposed 'monolith' climbing!
Straddling the monolith, picture doesnt show it but this is a stand-alone pillar that just got Andy and I sat on top!
