Life In The Alps

August 15, 2011

On Saturday August 13th we hiked from Champex, Switzerland to the Trient Hut.  Today, August 14th, we climbed the Aiguille du Tour and then descended to Chamonix.  The plan from here is to ascend to the Tete Rousse Hut on Monday, slay Mont Blanc on Tuesday, and come back to Chamonix on Wednesday.

Climbing in the Alps.

I have included some photos from our climb of the Aiguille du Tour today.  Paul and Matt Pottinger are great guys to work with!
