After a week of waiting under the clouds and rain, I finally saw the Mont Blanc and surrounding peaks (Aiguille du Midi below). It's very motivating!
The weather is a little better ... but there are upper wind and the meter of snow fell last week is not stabilized. I can not even get to the top. I still have to wait ...
Taking risks is one thing, taking too big risks is a huge mistake I do not want to! I have seen too many people die who have this error there.
All is well, then I have time .. patience ... The reward will be even better, of course:
Our planet deserves an effort an effort of patience ... for now!

"Patience and time do more than force and rage" as La Fontaine puts it
And as long as one is in quotes here is a lovely poem by Victor Hugo that I wanted to send you to your ascent:
"The Mont Blanc around a hundred mountains of the chain, As in the great oak birch [...] Appears in the middle of the Alps it smoothly; And the mountains, the world's frown, raised dark [...] The admire proud summits as the storm drains. - Great! Mount said the Giant. And beautiful! Mount Rose said. [...] All of the lake at the cottage, the valley of the abyss, [...] Around Mount powerful singing, choir monstrous It's him! the shepherd White tumultuous Mountains! It protects us all and all it is beyond us; It is the enchantment of the wonderful space [...] It combines a silver color with shimmer of Lake Geneva; [...] It sheds light after the sun has set; In the brown dusk it is addressed. And is believed to see the terrible Titan larva; He braided the blue Rhone with golden hair of the Arve. [...] The Archangel at the top is sharpening his sword; He like his dog at his feet the Salève; He weaves, bitter spinner, rainy mist; His tiara stands on our foreheads envious; Pines are the most green, the snow is whiter. [...] The vastness of kisses and takes a lover [...] A sea of crystal blue and diamond Mane of the lion worthy Ice Pole Falls, scary coat, his fierce shoulder. [...] It is higher, purer, larger than we are; And we insulting if we were men. "
With us it's nice too, and nature is beautiful. We took the opportunity to pick up garbage in the park and the stadium, there were 1098 with 674 waste butts! We will put a page on our website with pictures soon.
