Nice but long peakI climbed with my friend eza from la vallée etroite in a nice day. We suffered hot conditions in the valley and cold wind in the last ramp and the summit. The descent was a little long and boring.

A great dayMade it up to the summit with Rafa in the first day of our holidays, starting from the Vallée Etroite. A little bit windy, but nevertheless a great hike with wonderful views from the upper areas. Really enjoyed it
