Voie Petit
At the 17th of July Alexander Huber successfully redpointed the route "Voie Petit" on Grand
Capucin. With its 3838 meters height, Grand Capucin is not one of the really high summits of
the montblanc range. Nevertheless it is an attractive target for the climbers since the first
ascent of its east face which was first climbed by walter bonatti in the 50s.
In 1997 Arnaud Petit and Stefanie Bodet opened a new route on that face. During a brief meeting
in Yosemite, Arnaud mentioned to Alexander that it would be a perfect target for a hard multipitch
free climb…
After several attempts in July Alexander redpointed the whole route, every single pitch in one go.
