In mid January, Lutz Zybell, Felix Getzlaff, Tom Ehrig from Germany climbed a new route on the east face of Aguja Val Biois.
“La Torcida” starts left of Couloir Este and follows a left leaning crack system to the ridge of Filo Sur. It climbs 12 pitches with difficulties to 7a and some mixed climbing. Tom led every pitch onsight. They fixed the first two pitches the evening before starting and retreated upon joining the Filo Sur route. They left no gear in place, except one piton above the bergschrund to mark the start. They found signs of a previous attempt up to below half height, but nothing above. They describe it as an enjoyable climb on mostly solid rock. The face is quite sheltered from the wind, so it is a good option when the weather doesn’t allow for bigger adventures
