BARRE DES ÉCRINS 4102 M - CROSSED SOUTH/NORTH
Refuge temple-Ecrins
Long joint itinerary that takes place on a ground complex at high altitude. it traverses Rocky lengths, slopes of snow and ice.
a very nice way to go out at the top of the bar of the Ecrins.
downhill North Slope, towards the white glacier and the neck of the Ecrins to finish going through the Valley of good-pierre up to la bérarde.
