Does anyone have an opinion on which is a nicer climb, the Col du Glandon or Col de la Croix de Fer? I will be coming from Bourg d'Oisans and doing the loop over both but need to decide which way to go.
I will be with very average descenders so the choice may need to be governed by which ever is the easier descent. Seems like Glandon has a sting at the top but is a straighter descent, while Croix de Fer is more twisty. Hard to tell which is steeper.
Anyone...Bueller?
