Nydelig tur med Martine etter jobb. Det var ganske vekslende skiføre, med tung slusjsnø lenger ned på fjellet og skare høyere opp siden det var ganske kjølig i øverste delen av fjellet. Kan ikke ikke si at det var den herligste skiopplevelse noensinne her, men det var i hvert fall en fin kveldstur med godt selskap. Var litt overraskende at vi ikke møtte på noen andre folk på fjellet heller!

Etterjobbtur med Renate. Veldig fin utsikt på toppen, men skiføret var ikke helt fantastisk før vi hadde kommet omtrent halvveis ned, med en del gjennomslagsføre i det bratteste heng... deretter var det noe som kan beskrives som brukbart føre. Men alt i alt en flott kveldstur. Og det er alltid artig å ha skiene på beina! Takk for nok en fin tur Renate :)

I dag hadde jeg og Renate tenkt å gå en tur på Bentsjordtinden, men til slutt endte vi opp på Storstolpan. 12 varmegrader ved bilen og mer eller mindre alle turfolk gikk i shorts og sports-BH i dag (eller bare shorts for mannfolk). Var ganske artig å se så mye folk ute for å nyte denne nydelige søndagen! Etter en laaaaaang pause på toppen gikk vi ned til skidepoten igjen og vi fikk en deilig nedkjøring på perfekt vårsnø. Store kontraster i forhold til det kalde været jeg hadde vært på tur i på Durfourspitze i uken før!

Tåke ble liggende over byen ganske lenge så det ble bare en kort ettermiddagstur til Steinskartinden for å feire nasjonaldagen.

After having a chilled out weekend in Chamonix after our trip up the Dufourspitze I’d decided to stay for an extra few days in the Alps to make the most of the sunny weather that had been forecasted for the coming week, though I’d missed the fact that there were strong winds up high of around 70-80kph as well. Anyway since Rob and Simon were off to make an attempt on Mont Blanc, I was going to meet up with guide Thor Husted who was originally from Taos in New Mexico but had been living and working in Chamonix for a good part of the past 2 decades. We had a brief chat about possible objectives - I was at first keen to do an ascent of the Dom though after having taken into consideration the forecasted winds for tuesday morning, this didn’t seem particularly likely. The choice was mainly >>>

I first climbed the Dufourspitze in 2003 as a novice mountaineer with the late female British guide Brede Arkless as the final peak on a 4-day long trip around the Italian side of the Monte Rosa massif. Due to my camera betteries dying at the Gnifetti hut I never did get any photos to remember the spectacular ridge traverse over the Zumsteinspitze and Dufourspitze from the Margherita hut, but had not forgotten that it was a peak to return to and do again! Sixteen years later, and after having a one day break following our ascent of the Gran Paradiso we had a few options for finishing off the week given that the weather in the Zermatt valley was forecasted to be awesome on the Friday. With the exception of the Dom and Bishorn there aren’t actually that many peaks in the Zermatt valley that >>>

Another year and another trip to the Alps :) This year I was joining Simon (who I didn’t know before arriving in Chamonix) and our guide Rob Jarvis who I’ve skied with several times before, for a 4-day trip into the Bernese Oberland with the hope of ticking off some of the major 4000m peaks in the area. Well, that was the original plan anyway. Unfortunately the first week of May seemed to be offering nothing but unsettled weather north of the Rhone valley with a lot of new snow being dumped in the mountains - and most up in the Bernese Oberland. We’d already heard that there had been some avalanche fatalities in the Bernese Oberland in the week before we’d arrived, so it was a reminder that conditions were still full on winter up high. With the unsettled forecast in mind but potential >>>

Half day acclimatisation trip with Rob and Simon from the Skyway lift on the italian side of Mont Blanc. Skied Down the glacier west of the Petit Flambeau but not all the way down to the Glacier du Geant; skinned back up to a saddle on the north ridge of the peak and then walked up the rest of it. Great views and nice to have some light exercise before driving south to the Gran Paradiso.
