Excursion 01a

Saturday, 19 April 2003

Dear colleagues,

This is the very first excursion in the 2003 session. As it takes place at the beginning of Spring and as the snow is still around I have choosen a low altitude excursion and a very short one to compensate for the uneasyness of the snow. Here is my proposal:


Date: Saturday, 19 April 2003
Site: La Dole (1677)
Classification: Very easy
Altitude: 1677 m (highest point)
Climbing up distance: 425 m
Climbing time: 1h20
Total hiking time: 2h
Starting point: Teleski of Dappes - (1989m)
Meeting point: My place at St. Genis at 9.30 am
Remarks: Panoramic
Access: Cole de la Faucille following RN5 direction Les Rousses. Park nearby the chair lift of des Dappes, about 4 km far from the col de la faucille. Driving time from my place: 30 minutes

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.
