Mont Blanc through the cloud
Final day on this Tour du Mont Blanc guiding for Alpine Treks. The finest way to end the trek from Argentiere to Chamonix is via the 'Ladders' up to Lac Blanc.  The weather forecast wasn't looking too clever with rain forecast morning and afternoon with only a few bright spells. Instead we got some stunning cloud formations through out the day. On the way up to the treeline we spotted 3 Chamois in the forest. What a treat, never seen them in this area before.
The team did brilliant,  overcoming their trepidation on the Ladder section. Everyone had a great day in The swirling cloud. We had just 10 minutes of light drizzle,
A fabulous 11 days with these guys. Some great laughs and fun times.
Final TMB for 2018. That takes me to over 60 TMB circuits now. Time to stop counting :-)
