Stephen Chiang and I climbed for a week in the chamonix valley. Though we experienced some bad weather we still managed to climb 8 peaks in 8 days (Oh the beauty of lift served climbing!). Since it snowed almost a meter of new snow in the high peaks we started in the Aiguilles Rouge and climbed the Traverse des Crochues. This route traverse west to east across the Aiguilles Crochues (2840m).

John Travis and Adrian Ball returned to La Grave for their second year to do some more skiing with us. We spend a few days skiing in Montgenevre, France. A great mom and pop ski area that doesn’t see much off-piste skiers and is also right on the Italian border. So we’ll ski into Italy for lunch and an espresso and enjoy all the amazing terrain nearby. We then spent another couple days back in La Grave and skied the ultra-classic La Voute Couloir and many others. Both John and Adrian met me a month later in Chamonix to ski off the summit of Mont Blanc. What a trip!
