Source directions

Avanzare quasi orizzontalmente (in direzione NW) fino a superare un marcato sperone che delimita a SE il couloir Macho. Salirlo per 350m fino al colle, la prima parte sui 45° poi si impenna nel tratto centrale ben oltre i 50° per riaddolcirsi negli ultimi 50m. >Per tornare al Rifugio Torino occorre risalire per poco meno di 100m di dislivello.

Source directions

##Approche>De l'Aiguille du Midi, descendre la vallée Blanche classique en tirant à droite sous la Pyramide du Tacul. >##Le couloir>Mettre les peaux, direction plein S puis repérer un couloir évident (SE) entre le Grand et le Petit Capucin (brèche du Carabinier), S4 sur 100 m. Le remonter. Arriver à un replat. La pente NE du col du Diable est évidente au-dessus du large cône de neige à droite. Le couloir à gauche, similaire, est celui des Aiguillettes. >Franchir la rimaye (parfois délicate), puis remonter la pente au-dessus. Lorsque l'axe est barré s'en échapper à droite. Il ne reste plus qu'à remonter l'éperon puis la pente suspendue terminale.>##Descente >Par le même itinéraire. Ensuite soit descendre la Vallée Blanche soit remonter à l'Aiguille du Midi.
