Mont Blanc Grand Paradiso : The Pursuit of Ascent
Mountain | reviews | videos | photos
A long planned week trip to the Alps to try and ascend Mont Blanc doesnt quite turn out as expected as the weather had other ideas. The video covers a small amount of pre-trip training and thoughts on altitude, attempted acclimatisation the weekend before (in a storm), glacial training on the Mer de glace, as well as further acclimatisation crossing the arrete at Aiguille du Midi, going up Lachanel, and then weather discussions before going up Grand Paradiso, and Petit Verte on the final day. If you are planning on climbing a peak and have little previous alpine experience and want to know what it can be like(from a beginners perspective), this may interest you.
