La Dibona

Description

Climbing these granite slabs in 14 or 15 pitches is an epoch in the life of a mountaineer.
The south face, the most attractive and also the most crowded, is a fine climb. The summit is reached via a combination of routes: the Madier direct south face route, the Boell normal south face route, the Berthet variant and the Stofer variant.
The Madier route, 50 years old and still going strong, has been partially re-equipped (belays on bolts, 2 points per pitch). The top of the Madier crack has been damaged, and the 5C has become a fairly committed 6A. A large friend needs to be installed.
Descend via Angelo Dibona's route, 2 or 3 abseils.
1st ascent: South Face by A. and J. Boell, A le Ray in 1935.
