Skiing and climbing photos – galleries from adventures and expeditions

We took the first train in the morning from St.Gervais and are now on the way to the Tete Rousse refuge.

The wind is blowing a little but we are all in good mood!On the top left just beside the sun the Goutier refuge is located.

We have crossed the Grande Couloir and are now close to the Goutier refuge. There are no people in front of us and the fresh snow from the last days does not make it easier.

A quick drink, a picture and off we go! In the back you can see the north face of the Aiguille du Bionasssey.

We had a break at the Goutier refuge and decided to go for the summit the same evening.On the bottom left corner you can see the roof of the refuge.

In front of us the slopes up to the Dome du Goutier, no tracks lets see what we find!

Behind us Franz and team, lots of work breaking the trail in the fresh snow!On the left the summit of the Aigulle du Bionassey.

Perfect weather, once we reach the summit of Dome du Goutier.

From here we also get a good look at the final summit ridge, the Bosses ridge!

At about 7 o´clock in the evening the first team reaches the summit. It´s getting cold, but the flag is up!

Also the wind starts to pick up a little. What a fantastic scenery!

We are on the way back down and the sky starts to change its colour, behind us the Bosses Ridge.

Tired, but how fantstic is it to get sunset on the top of Europe!

Soon it will get bitter cold and at about 10 o´clock we are back in the refuge.
