We'll take the track from the Sorteny parking lot to the shelter, and from there we'll put the remaining blades on our left, behind the shelter, through open woods.. Once we reach the top of the Racón we must continue to climb in the N.E. direction, always on smooth terrain, until the pass. In this section, we'll cross the path of a large wave that can descend in conditions of extreme instability.. From the slope, follow the back in the direction NO to the next hill, where the descent begins. We'll descend through the soft, broad blades ahead until we find a narrower tube that leads to the bottom of the Rialb Valley.. The use of clips may be necessary in the first part of the descent if there are ice sheets near the neck. We will follow the valley bottom along the left (east) bank of the river, passing the refuge of Rialb. In this whole stretch, we must be careful with the slope that remains on the left, since there are several canals that, in conditions of instability, give rise to natural avalanches that can reach the bottom of the valley.. This route can also be done in the opposite direction, going up the Rialb valley and down towards Sorteny
