La Meije : Arête du Promontoire (voie normale) puis traversée des arêtes

Big day !

Thank you

Thank you for this report which was very instructive. Congrats for this outing

Pour accéder à l’Aigle (en montant du bas ou en descendant du Doigt de Dieu) il faut nécessairement être encordé sauf à vouloir terminer au fond d’un trou…

Merci !

Sorry, was busy climbing so didn’t see your question. There are some big crevasses you need to pass and the glacier was very slushy around 6pm when we got onto it.

I would never do this alone. If I remember correctly my partner went in with one or two legs. Then again we were there at 6pm… Maybe if it freezes overnight and you pass it around 7am it could be fine, but with the current temperatures I don’t think it’s a good idea :).
