Champex-Lac SE climb

A very steep climb above Champex-Lac in Valais. Its 30.0 TEP puts it above 98% of catalogued climbs. Its steepest 500 metres run at 34.4% and start 1.5 km in, in the middle of the climb, so pace the first part. Most runners need 42 to 70 minutes. On the SAC scale it is mountain hiking, with uneven ground that asks for some care. Southeast-facing, so it takes the morning sun and clears of snow earlier in spring. The nearest named summit, La Breya at 2,374 m, is 770 m away.
