Over Christmas vacation with the children we went camping in the Hidden Valley Campground. During the night it snowed, very chilly in the morning and warmed up gloriously during the day, perfect for climbing. Did all sorts of top fixed rope climbing and some multiple pitches. Face and fissure climbing. We had great fun.

Sept 2. Left l'Aiguille du midi at 8am (took telepherique at 7am). Guide Vincent Coutet, AM coeur and I started climbing at 9:30. Narrow fissures, blocs,some relays that are tricky, delicate traverse. Last fissure just narrow enough to put fist and top of toes in it. Category IV-V. Beautiful climb.Arrival at la Sortie Cretton. Took us 4 hrs from bottom to top.7 rappels for doing down.Took us 1.50 hrs. Went to spend the night at the Refuge Helbrunner.
