acclimatization
30-06-08
Before any attempt on Mont Blanc, acclimatization
is a process everyone has to go through. With our
team of 3 people from Iceland, we spend 2 days in
altitude : on the first day we traverse from the
Aiguille du Midi to Punta Helbronner, and on the
way we climb the easy Petit Flambeau ; we sleep at
the Cosmiques Hut (3600m) ; the second day we climb
the Mont-Blanc du Tacul (4200m) and go back to the
valley. After one day of recuperation, we should be
ready for the big mountain !
