The precise hight of the wall is a bit unclear. A figure of 1400 m has
been postulated, but 1200 is more likely. Still among the higest ....
The Catalan route from 1984 (which we tried) follows a right
facing dihedral up to the marked zigzag roof at 1/3 hight. The roof is
reached at it's left side before traversing right for 60 m. Cross the roof
and follow flakes and and diedres continously to the summit ridge. There
are about 4-6 routes on the face - including one by Michel Piola.
