With Rémi, we choose sunshine at Le Ponteil: multi-pitch climbing on Rôles en dalle, FOMEC and Les Diables, plus a few single pitches to top up the tan.
Do not be fooled: life in the Hautes-Alpes is not easy. Terrible decisions confront you first thing in the morning. Should I go and carve big turns in powder? Or bask beneath a warm, sunny crag?
With enough motivation, you can escape this agonising choice by doing both…
Rémi and I choose the lizard option.
Just a stone’s throw from home, nature provides everything reptiles like us could want: an approach suited to our little legs, multi-pitch routes for those who can only count to six, rock capable of stirring a few aesthetic emotions and… above all, plenty of infrared radiation to keep our reptilian blood warm!
In short, the extreme conditions at Le Ponteil force us to spend almost the entire time shirtless. A truly hair-raising situation!
While we are in this pleasant spot, we enjoy some vertical frolicking on Rôles en dalle, very pretty indeed, and a combination of FOMEC and Les Diables.
All rounded off with a few single-pitch routes to top up the tan.
Not an easy life…
