Superb conditions in the Alps

Andy Owen has just phoned in from Chamonix after a fantastic start to our Alpine Courses. Andy was guiding on our Chamonix Climber course this past week. They had 5 good days of weather, with it being a bit iffy today. Andy reports:

"The conditions in the high mountains at the moment are absolutely stunning. Some of the goulottes are in the best condition that I've seen in the past 5 or 6 years. We did the Contamine Grisolle (Left Edge) Route on the Tacul Triangle, the Chere Couloir, got pretty far up Dent du Geant and finished off with the Cosmiques. Probably the best conditions I've ever know on the Chere Couloir. Today the weather's been a bit less settled, so we've been doing some rock climbing in the valley."

Jagged Globe has another Chamonix Climber course starting this weekend (sorry - fully booked). We have places on our Arolla-based Alpine Introduction.
