Tactics: Like all alpine climbing, tactics and strategy are important. The face can be reconnoitred from the Col de Montets (with binoculars) to ascertain its condition (or check UKC!). Whilst a proper alpine face it lends itself to 'single push' tactics and there are few good bivouac sites. Many parties now climb (with a good forecast) without bivouac kit and carry out the descent to the Couvercle hut in a single outing. You should be familiar with climbing simultaneously over technical ground with your partner to ensure success.
下撤:从山峰顶部倾斜区域沿Breche de Droites峰上的沟渠下撤。而且这里已经安置的装备,让攀岩者从冰川上采用双绳方式下撤。最近的数个攀登季,这里极为干燥,如果你的上端有攀登者应该避免继续进行攀爬(落石)。一旦身处线路的冰川部分,或许会通过一两处裂缝区域(或需要采用双绳方式),而最终仍要沿极长的等高线行进到达Couvercle宿营地。
