On the second day of our 5-day Mt Blanc course the weather clears at lunch time and we are the first team to descent the ridge from the Aiguille du Midi. |
 |
We find very snowy conditions and decide to climb the aręte Laurence, just below the Cosmiques refuge. |
 |
Great views onto the Bosson glacier... |
 |
and fun climbing for us. |
 |
At 4 o'clock we arrive at the Cosmiques refuge,... |
 |
...our home for this night. |
 |
Great views and a good food! |
 |
On our third day we climb the Cosmiques ridge. |
 |
There he is, waiting for us in the background - Mont Blanc. |
 |
We decide to climb via the Goutier side, as there is too high avalanche danger to ascend from the Cosmiques refuge. |
 |
Starting at 1am from the Tete Rousse refuge, we are at the Vallot bivac by sunrise. For lunch time there is another weather front forecasted... |
 |
At 8 o'clock we reach the summit of Mont Blanc. Happy but tired! |
 |
The clouds are mooving in quickly, time to go down. |
 |
When descending the Bosses ridge the summit is already covered in clouds. At 5pm we are back in Chamonix, we had a great, fun week!
