Agulla Inferior de Crabes

Next morning up bright and early and with the sun shining on our objective for the day - the Agulla Inferior de Crabes.

Porridge breakfast.


A better view of the Agulles de Crabes and our route of the day to the summit of the Agulla Inferior.


Our route 'Caramel' follows the slanting corner/groove all the way to the top.

After crossing a short steep snow patch to get established the climbing was brilliant. This crux pitch (marked as Ao in the guide) was easy enough to free at about E1/2. All clean apart from some poor pegs on the crux.



Then a fairly easy descent down the gully back to the bags.
