made it onto the blog .. first step towards making it onto the actual mountain later in the year.
Been to Chamonix 3 or 4 times, always in winter, one of my fav places anywhere in the world, great place to start a break from. The views across mont blanc and the vallee blanche from the grand montets are amongst the best I've seen (see pics), and from the top lift station you can see a fair bit of the area we're going to be visiting. I have to admit I cant wait to see it from the paths rather than from the lift exits. The piste down from the top here is one of the steepest blacks anywhere, so you dont have a lot of opportunity to enjoy the view once you get moving, the scene from the station exit steps is the one that sticks though.
Heres hoping the trip in June is just as memorable .
