According to a local expert Nuits Blanches is always "in", so we went for a look. He's not wrong, it's there, but very different from last time. The reservoir purge has left a big brown streak down the top pitch, and it hasn't been climbed much so there are very few hooks and steps. And 2 definite roofs on the top pitch! All quite challenging.
View across to the Shiva/Grand Bleu wall.
Abbing in, hoping we can climb out again!
Long view down the top pitch, guaranteed atmosphere!
Grappling with the roof at the top, trying not to add to the brown streaks...
