Start at the top of the signal chair lift, ski about 100 meters down the pist leading to the bottom of the Roche Mantel, three-man chairlift. At the top of the first big wall traverse off the pist to reach a cornice, wich is easy to cross. From here an average slope with a long flat section leads to a round dome, ski around on the right -hand side. Keep traversing on the more gentle inclines until you have passed the face to the other side. Ski down, angle more to the left until you have gradually left this bowl. You will arrive to a shoulder at alt:2650m. A new section of a narrow and steep 40° slope, Jacotte ridge. Follow the wide ridge until a flat section, then a slight climb. The slope eases out gradually, after wich you need to traverse above a rock-face. A nice wide and steep west-facing slope opens up for approx 500 vertical meters down to the village of Cuculet. |
