Barre des écrins | Pilier sud South pilar

In Dauphiné, the most south 4000m peak of the Alps. We climbed its south side till the top!
Started from parking pré de madame Carle (1850m).
5:50 started to climb (2800m)
17:30 summit (4102m)
Normal way down the glacier blanc, hiked back to the car late and very tired...
We probably unter estimated the line and chose it as our first one of the trip. It's very long, complex and beautiful! (The whole rock climbing meter is about 2000m.) We saw a few bivouac places at 3000, 3500, or near the summit.

Lange, aber sehr schöne Tour!

[@AlbertMXG]

awesome! most people do bivouac but you crushed it in a single push, very nice!

[@valippfromthealps]

Thanks! It was a very long day... The hiking back was endless.
