Storm at Mt-King

Here we're climbing during a summer thunderstorm in Val David. The area of la Zébrée overhangs several meters and stays continuously dry. La Zébrée is one of only a few aid routes left in Val David. Several attemps at freeing the line have been unsuccesful. The route follows an overhanging finger/hand crack through 25 metres of roofs and faces. A good candidate for becoming Québec's first 5.14.
