Biographie is the long, pocketed sport route on the steep limestone of Céüse that has come to define the 5.15a grade. It combines sustained crimpy sequences and a difficult, committing finish, requiring both endurance and precise movement after many taxing moves. The route has a history of shutting down climbers for years and is notable for its aesthetic line and the way it rewards meticulous rehearsal and composure on steep terrain.
