Cosmique Couloir.
3x 30m rappels into the couloir. Steep and Deep, mainly around 50 degrees!
Not a place one wants to fall over on! Awesome snow however a few rock bands still require delicate manouvering over. Deep powder and a traverse round led us onto the "Rond Glacier."
The exit could do with a little more snow as side stepping down a 70 degree slope of bullet ice 170cm wide with 40 to 60ft drops on either side, complete with crevases wasn't the most appealing of exits!
The descent continued down a river bed ending up at the entrance to the Mont Blanc Tunnel!
A sweet day!
