Mer de Glace - Thursday 16th July

We took the train up to Montenvers then walked up the Mer de Glace for about an hour and a half to the granite slabs which lie below the Envers Refuge. There are many routes, some fully bolted and some with just an occasional bolt so lots to chosse from.

We climbed Pilier des Rhodo-dindons which was a mixture of slabs and cracks and all in the most fantastic setting. The weather was perfect and there were only two other climbers on another route.
