Excursion XX

Sunday, 11 October 1998

Dear friends,

I know, I know! this easy one was not announced. It was profiting from the visit of my family that we went (via telepheric) to la Aiguille du Midi.


Date: Sunday, 11 October 1998
Site: Aiguille du Midi (3820m)
Classification: Without
Altitude: 3820 m. (highest point)
Vertical distance to climb: 4 m.
Climbing time: 2 minutes + 20 (tel)
Total hiking time (both ways): 2 hours
Starting point: Chamonix (~1000 m)
Remarks:
Access: Motorway to Chamonix. The trip from CERN to Chamonix will take 60 minutes.
Meeting point:

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.

I hope weather conditions will allow an enjoyable excursion! (They did!)

Cheers!

Jose.
