The icefall is located in a gully just above Gressoney St. Jean, hidden up to today (perhaps) from indiscreet glances. Each of the three pitches of Wait and Bleed differ significantly from each other but each are particular and striking.

Dedicated to Sole who was born in June, their Waiting for the sun behind the moon offers varied climbing up a series of slabs, cracks and corners. Pitch 2 offers a bombè roof which still need freeing - presumably at...

Wasserläufer is a pleasant route in a great ambient; you often climb just a stone’s throw from the Margarethenbach waterfall, which shouldn’t be underestimated. The route was established ground-up with bolts. A big thank you to the Hochtourengruppe Lana for paying...
