[MCR] Bourgeau Left Hand

Climbed Bourgeau Left Hand today, Dec 30th. The climb is a half grade stiffer than often, true grade 5? This is because the last 30 meters, the crux, has to be climbed in the centre because the climb is not filled out and offering easier options to the right.

Eric Dumerac's new anchors on top, and 57 meters down from the top, muchly appreciated. Note, that in Eric's MCR post of Dec 28th, and with regards to his new route "Toishi" -"Climb first pitch of Bourgeau left and traverse 60 meters to the right", most parties would consider this the first two pitches of Bourgeau LH.

Happy trails
