Alpine planning
Weatherproof IGN Maps have arrived from Stanfords and we have been reviewing objectives for our first alpine expedition.
We are planning four nights in high mountain huts and ascents of Tete Blanche (from the South and again from the North) and L’Aiguille du Tour.
Over the coming weeks we hope to refine the itinerary as we continue our research but the flights and airport transfers are now booked.
Useful resources:
Snow, Ice and mixed – the guide to the Mont Blanc Range (Vol 1) by Francois Damilano
Easy ascents in the Mont Blanc Range – Francois Burnier, Dominique Potard
