With the good weather bubble persisting over the alps I felt it was time to go out again. Last week Marcello, Kivik and I found ourselves before the Grand Montets cablecar.
After the usual delay of sorting out gear out of a messy van we catched the ben at 9.30 leaving at 10 at the top. We skied down, I broke a ski pole and we started skinning up for the Face Nord des Courtes. Last few weeks we did some big cardio trips, they’ve made me stronger and now I can almost keep up with those 2 skitour rockets, but they still have more men in the engine room shoveling coal !
