Icogne NW climb

This short, very steep climb rises above Icogne in Valais. Expect 11 to 19 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 25.6% and start 506 m in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. Northwest-facing, so it stays cool and holds snow late. The nearest named summit, Pointe de la Plaine Morte at 2,927 m, is 435 m away. At 3.7 TEP it sits in the easier half of the catalogue. On the SAC scale it is mountain hiking, with uneven ground that asks for some care.
