Bordes flood: it curdles again!!

For the third time we decide to come back on board with the raw determination to see the waterfall Delors. Backed by a team of motivated revelois, we end on Saturday night in the rain, deep in the valley Estours.
The next day we start early and quickly find snow on the sentier.La
mounted in wood, well marked, is still trying and we walk on the platform at the edge of cirque.Nous we dress up and equip the crossing vertically above the entrance guarded by a cascade of ice


Lionel introduces its brand new Nepal Top Extreme and installs a static rope to the entrance porch. It continues its momentum with the first slide well supplied glace.Le second, less icy passes without crampons.




Hole sucks and it is cold terrible. We continue to increase by a more horizontal path, littered with icy blocks and concretions of ice. Only after the restriction that the temperature becomes milder and the roar of the river is heard.
We nibble on some goodies before facing moisture.

A P20 leads us into the bed of a beautiful river carved out of marble (limestone, cherry, dark green and the carboniferous limestone consists of alternating beds of clear calcite and almost pure beds of dark minerals insolubles.La increase was enough to delight the cave: waterfalls well equipped and handrails, oppositions, climbing .....
