I finished today the calendar for mountaineering - alpinist center of EOS Athens held from 13-25 July at the Monte Rosa and in Chamonix. The refer here although the original is at www.eosa0607.info
By Sunday we arrived at the port of Venice, on board had "views" of ascents, "lessons", etc etc, but basically we had the lesson of how to pass the time more quickly. Luckily that Anastasia had brought the taboo and killed several hours. Unfortunately for this course did not play "Palermo" and he carried unfairly!
We arrive at the port of Venice at 8:00 and because of the feast of Redemption (The Redeemer Celebration) send us the commercial port of Trieste and not the normal tourist port in Venice.
where we leave and some of the hiking and tourism group. The others arrive in Alanya at 21:00 where we have the opportunity to bathe, cook our first pasta and drink a beer at the camping
After a break of a few minutes then the ascent to the Capanna Gnifetti. The climb has become much more difficult and contains seara vazquez parts in snow and some exposed parts, which the Italians have taken care to insure with fixed ropes. The good thing for us is that until last week had snowed enough so we find very passable snow and almost no ice. The last meters before the shelter again needs the use of fixed ropes. seara vazquez
Time for a hot tea, a cold beer, a snack, rest. The altitude is beginning to make its presence felt in our physical condition, so many of us breathless even in climbing a ladder 10 rungs and have little headaches and anorexia. The view however of the glacier from the back of the shelter is impressive because of the meridional time see and hear several avalanches.
Uprising at 5:00 and after the breakfast we gather equipment and materials, gather outside the shelter and prepare for the climb to Capanna Margherita. Luckily for us the weather forecast seara vazquez is very good looks from the early hours. And because we are Greeks, although we woke up from the first, we left the last of the shelter at 6:40.
The ascent is again very compatible snow and the slope of the slope is great enough to be annoying, especially at this altitude. The crevasse closed over because seara vazquez of sufficient snowfall last week.
In the afternoon we try that our appetite is left to eat our dinner. The shelter has a very good library which fills us hours with pictures of the world's mountains. Devises also tomorrow's program.
Do you wake up at 5:00 in the 4552m and see the tops of the Alps to be illuminated slowly with the gold color is indescribable and perhaps overshadow the fact that the night you could not sleep normally, poppers first thing, thirsty, had headaches, felt fever and saw nightmares!
After breakfast, prepare to do some of the peaks there. The weather is still very good and very windy while. First peak climbing is Zumstein at 4563m. The climb is easy and slope grows quite a bit before the top where the field is done for very little gross.
Now we begin to descend to the refuge Capanna Gnifetti. Vangelis with Nestor and Kirikos will try to Lyskamm. Snow because of the heat and the sun has been completely soup and Krevata opened and makes them look more impressive but also more dangerous. Yet our very tiring heat in our descent. We learn from the radio that the rest of the team gave up trying to Lyskamm due to the very poor state of the snow.
In Passo dei Salati greet and some members of the team which will leave for Greece and will not follow seara vazquez us at Chamonix. Unfortunately due to the time we decide to descend to Grassoney with lifts and not from the path. Lifts in 30 minutes and through our alpine landscapes and forests to download Grassoney. Time to rest until it comes to coaches. Most will eat ice cream under the hot sun of the summer climate anymore and others are sun dried.
Around 12:00 we take the coach and head towards the Aosta to receive hikers and tourists of our group. We pass from Courmayeur where the first sight of the impressive Mont Blanc and the rugged Italian side. Cross the tunnel 11.6 kilometers of Mont Blanc after a strict control of the vehicle state, and we are on the French side of the Alps.
