Another very hot day on the Haute Route. Probably around 28 C by mid afternoon. A tough toil in these conditions up the Fenetre Arppette. Great views and clear too. The team did well in the conditions. A good test piece of 1600m up and 1500m down. A lot of folk on the trail today with HUGE camping rucksack. Some looking wiped out as the approached the Fenetre.  Top day working for #tracksandtrails & #Cloud9adventours.
