Details

A series of small bowls and sustained slopes lead down between rocks towards the Glacier d’Argentière.

Rock and ice-falls can make the exit tricky, so good snow cover is essential.

A reconnaissance run down the classic Rognons descent will help to check out conditions on this route.

Good visibility is essential as is glacier travel gear.

Not always obvious to find the right exit couloir. Observe from the Argentière glacier
