Alpine Trilogy video #3: Benjamin Védrines & Léo Billon climb the Grandes Jorasses

Watch Benjamin Védrines and Léo Billon climb the Grandes Jorasses via the Colton-McIntyre route, as part of their April 2025 Alpine Trilogy which resulted in them enchaining in 6 days and without motorised transport the Eiger, Matterhorn and Grandes Jorasses.

After climbing the north face of the Eiger on 7 April 2025, via the Heckmair route in just 4 hours and 10 minutes, and the Matterhorn two days later via the classic Schmid route, Léo Billon and Benjamin Védrines sped up the Grandes Jorasses on 11 April via the ultra-famous Colton-McIntyre in 4 hours and 20 minutes. In doing so, the two French alpinists summited the three great north faces of the Alps in just six days, with Védrines completing the link-up by fair means - using a bicycle, paraglider, or on foot, without motorised transport. Check out the final chapter of their Alpine Trilogy.
