under a great sun, today we went down the Vallee Blanche with a group of Belgian .
With the heat and the strong winds of recent days at high altitude, the snow began to fall Sunday in the sides to settle Sun
The Vallée Blanche is in beautiful condition but potentially very dangerous to ski.
The snow of recent days has just hidden the large holes in this year due to lack of rainfall. You have to be very alert even on the trail, and have good knowledge of the usual route that is from Italy or France.
the point where the two routes come together there are many crevasses near the track, and the area of \u200b\u200bthe "Salle a manger" requires good control of the skis.
is only up to the station with Montenvers skiing, but this is nothing new.
As regards the conditions of the walls, the wind blew and the profile slope just N fouling (the French side of Mont Blanc), while the other sides are still some loads.
The Goulottes of Rognon du Plan still have a lot of snow above, and the Midi-Plan ridge beyond not being traced has significant accumulations.
The direct and Carlo Eugster Goulottes Chassagne Aiguille du Midi are not in condition.
On E side of the Tacul Goulottes Modica Nourry Gabarrou Albinoni and are in good condition and have now been plotted. Similarly, there were traces at the base of Valeria, but the conditions are not clear, and the serac seems threatening. In good condition also the classic Supercouloir attack. The output peak is not recommended because of the descent to the normal route is currently in poor condition (which downloads serac, plates and plates of ice, wind). The N
the Tour Ronde is white, but I think it's just flour as a few days ago it was ice in vivo. The triangle
du Tacul were climbed today Cher (very dangerous attack because of the shock serac) and the express line.
The slopes that rise to peaks Lachenal are in black ice. The crest of Cosmiques is drawn.
were also plotted the Aiguille du Tacul les Periades but I imagine that the descent is very sensitive with many crevasses.
approaches for skis or snowshoes are a must.
is a general idea of \u200b\u200bcurrent conditions in the Mont Blanc massif.
