The exit via the ridge (brown dotted line) described in the book by Jourdan/Fiorina was described by Lendi as a 1.5 hour struggle through the maquis. Therefore, here is the (unverified) suggestion to follow this stream downhill for about 250m when you reach the Bravone and then get out immediately after a small stream flowing in from the left onto the meadow on the left. Here you come to a (possibly somewhat overgrown) field path, which is the start of the red marked ascent path. At the top of the D16, turn left and walk 1.4 km to Matra (see "Exit(s)" in the photo gallery).
