Nabot Leon TD-, 5c+, 180m

On the 31rd of july Lars Fjendbo and I climbed “Nabot Leon TD-, 5c, 180m” on the Pilier Rouge on Aiguille de Blaitiere. The route is pretty short only five pitches but each of them offer great crack climbing.

 Lars Fjendbo on the approach to the massive west face of Aiguille de Blaitiere, Aiguille du Plan glacier on the right.

 Lars Fjendbo on the first pitch, goes at around 5c.

Following the beautiful 5b slab pitch, after this a chimney/corner pitch where most people abseil off, it is possible to continue up the pillar for three pitches.

Part of the Pilier Rouge which houses Nabot Leon and many other high quality routes, we abseiled down Majorette Thatcher, looks amazing.
