Excursion 06

Sunday, 2 August 1992

Dear colleagues,

After the last very successful and complete journey, this is, perhaps, the time to prepare our next excursion, which will be a little bit harder. Weatherwise, I hope the coming weekend will be similar to the last one. Here is my proposal for Sunday 2nd of August:


Date: Sunday, 2 August 1992
Site: Pointe de la Bajulaz - La Tournette (2351 m)
Classification: difficult, ma non tropo
Altitude: 2254-2351 m
Climbing up distance: 1200-1300 m
Climbing time: 3h50
Total hiking time: 6h30
Starting point: Village of Montmin (1050 m)
Meeting point: CERN Main Cafeteria at 8.50 am to leave at 9.00 am.
Remarks: Panoramics
Access: To reach Montmin, we should drive to Anneci, take the road to Talloires and before crossing Talloires take a little road to to the left to Le Col de la Forclaz and continue till Montmin. The trip from CERN to Montmin Village will take about 1h30.

At 5.30 pm we should have finished hiking and be down at the chalet de l'Aulp. There we can decide whether to drink a beer or to proceed to the lake of Annecy to swim for a while. In the URL http://excursiones.salicio.net you can find information on the outings.

It is convenient to emphasize some useful items: please do not forget to carry on (wear) raincoat, hat/cap and sun glasses, warm gloves, hiking boots or sport-footwear with thick and non-slipping sole, enough food and drinks for the own consumption. Spear dry clothes and after excursion confortable shoes are very convenient.

Have a lovely weekend! Cheers! Jose.
