Couloir on the East Face of Aiguille de Loriaz
The couloir located on the left of Loriaz Icefall. Climb up the couloir up to the point that splits into two and ski down the same way. In good conditions, it might be possible to ski it all the way from the summit but it would involve steep exposed skiing without any room for error.
