22nd-Work then a cloudy/ snowy day skiing at Grand Montets
23rd- Winter Alpinism
With a 3 day weather window and 3 days off work I booked some time with Plum for some Alpinism! As we havent really climbed before we went to do the Chéré Couloir, a 250 metre ice route on the Triangle du Tacul, part of Mont Blanc du Tacul. Basically we did it in about 5 pitches with bolt belays and abseiled off the route rather than continuing to the triangle summit. I think this is relatively normal in winter.
Anyway, had a great chance to test out the mono's with pitches up to 85 degrees. After descending we ski'd down the Vallee Blanche and home to Chamonix with hefty packs on!
Big plans for tue/wed
