Taking advantage of absolutely amazing conditions at the start of the season in the Mont Blanc massif, Italian mountain guide Niccolò Bruni and his girlfriend Federica Furia established C'est trop facile on the Aiguille du Toula. The line is a "pleasant goulotte just a stone's throw from the Skyway cable car." Six pitches lead past difficulties in the region of TD-, M6 and AI4+ to the 3,534-meter summit.

Speaking to planetmountain after the climb, Bruni explained, "To tell the truth, I thought it would be easier and that's where the name comes from, but in reality the first pitch put up a bit of a fight, a nice M6. The rest of the route is far easier with a very nice last M4 pitch."

The approach is about 20 minutes from Punta Helbronner, while the descent is carried out down the normal route.
