LE VOYAGE | The North Face

“Le Voyage is one of, if not the best trad first ascent I have ever done”: that’s quite a statement, coming from world class rock climber James Pearson. That’s the reason why fellow The North Face athletes Jacopo Larcher and Siebe Vanhee teamed up to look for the first repetitions of the route, located in the beautiful forests above the Annot village, in the French Alps.

More trad climbing videos! This was awesome!

The side-by-side shots are so cool! It was interesting to see the differences in their technique and in their gear placements. Kinda wild that one of them led this without a helmet.

No mention of Babsi Zangerl's ascent? She was in the video and climbed the route right after Siebe and Jacopo!

Pretty cool film and really cool climb. Not sure why the digital photos needed film borders though

GRANDE Jacopo

WRT the nut, it looks like its been twisted before failure. You can see its not twisted on that fall but perhaps previous placements? Maybe it was just old with some of the wires weakened or stressed? Either that or the QA department need a kick up the arse. If there are any other wired pieces with damage or that have been untwisted...etc, get rid. The climbing is fantastic! 👍👍

[@pauljepson1249]

It's a single wire nut which has a 4kn rating. That's a force which can be easily generated in a lead fall.
