what looks like a truly awesome 7b prow Les Meteoresabout 50 yards away, though we didn't try that so can't make any definitive recommendations.
Also you should go try this http://bleau.info/montrouget/9521.html this is the most awsome boulder ever, and the best problem you will try in the forest, 15 mins from the car completly on its own deep in boar nation
neil - you are clearly the man to ask in this field! Where did you start Meteores? Didn't seem that obvious to me.
Memoire d'Autre Tombe is my pick of the tougher ticks,
Did Chevalier Errant last year - harder, but not as good I thought. 7a+ seemed fair to me, as long as you finish on the right side of the arete.Didn't try El Kift, but has perhaps the most comfortable looking crimp in font on it! The very low start put me off a bit. Enjoyed failing on No Name Yet too.
Rocher Fin - not really esoteric, but far enough from the parking you won't see (m)any brits - class spot with lots of great easier stuff. Memoire d'Autre Tombe is my pick of the tougher ticks, it's just a shame I'm running short of stuff to do there.Memoire:
Enjoyed failing on No Name Yet too.
Thinking of Force du Destin as a possibility for DG's next tick reminded me of this - at a slightly more achievable grade: Fil de Verre, have had an unsuccesful play and it's great. There's a nice 7A just up the hill too: La Linea
http://bleau.info/auvergne/12431.htmlThis looked really good, didn't try it tho. I see scouse has done it, worth doing?
compression ministerielle at coquibus auvergne. a full body pump and not too far from the car and main trois pignons areas. rest of the area not great but this is well worth it.
http://bleau.info/demoiselles/12546.htmlIs excellent, we went up with the left hand, the other problems there didn't look up to much but we didn't look at them all
For someone who doesn't like dyno's, I'm impressed.
8b in the forest but still topping out with knees. The youth of today...

You can borrow mine when I've finished with it.
