Excursion 04

Sunday, 21 Jun 1998

Dear friends,
After the previous excursions we are slowly recovering our good shape. This time I am proposing still an easy trip with a slightly bigger distance to climb and bigger altitude.

My proposal for excursion 04 (this Sunday) is the following:


Date: Sunday, 21 Jun 1998
Site: "Mont de Vores - Col de Very"
Classification: Easy
Altitude: 2069 m
Vertical distance to climb: 737 m
Climbing time: 3.0 hours
Total hiking time (both ways): 6.0 hours
Starting point: Le Leutaz (1322 m altitude)
Remarks: Marmottes
Access: Take the motorway in direction to Chamonix and come out of it at the high of "Le Fayet". There take road D902 to St. Gervais-les-Bains and continue by road D909 and after by N212 to Megeve. In Megeve take the road that drives to the Telepheric of Rochebrune. Continue passing by the sites of les poches, les bouches, les avenieres, le tour-sur-cassioz, nant-valais, grenand and le leutaz (at about 5 km from Megeve). Park there.
Meeting point: CERN Main Cafeteria, on Sunday at 9.00 am

The trip to Le Leutaz will take about 2 hours. Please, be in time at the meeitng place so that our lunch at the top could still be called lunch.

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

I hope weather conditions will allow an enjoyable excursion!

Cheers!

Jose.
