On the weekend of April 8-10 we made the ski traverse of Dômes de Miage (3673 m) organized by UNIGE ski club, with Michel Piola and Christian Hug. It was a great outing, even though the weather on Saturday was quite nasty.
Catgory: Ski
Pointe de Vouasson. Ski tour with UniGe.
Всю пятницу я болела. Валялась в постели и отпивалась горячим чаем. Какой вы знаете лучший способ победить простуду? Я изобрела свой – пойти на 2 дня в горы с ночевкой. Мы отправились в регион Valais W – Pennine Alps W.
Col de la Fenêtre. Ski tour with UniGe.
Weather forecast was good – sun, no wind and -1C. But never believe to forecasts on 100%. We had hurricane wind, beastly cold and no sun. Instate of doing the initial plans – the loop Col de la Fenêtre – Col de la Cicle, we have managed to do only Col de la Fenêtre: Versant… Read more »
Les Pointes Longues. Ski tour with UniGe.
Today we were with our guide Yann (Yann Nussbaumer). And we did what was planned – Les Pointes Longues – 2709m. My first exit this year when we were not obliged to change our plans and when I was able to see something. We started at the Parking Vallon, la Lanche (Le Reposoir) – 1070 m…. Read more »
Petit Bargy. Ski tour with UniGe.
Ski touring season is open! In spite on the lack of snow we opened the ski touring season. We went with one of the “traditional” UniGe ski tours – Petit Bargy: Depuis Le Reposoir. Remarkable sunny day and a nice company with Dominique and Geneviève.
Pentecôte en rando-grimpe à Emosson (massif du Mont-Blanc)
The idea of this long week-end was to combine climbing and a ski-tour. In May the weather is warm and sunny, making it possible to climb on quite a high altitude. At the same time there were still enough snow to rich some nice climbing spots on ski.

Day 1. Col du Chardonnet: Traversée Aiguille des Grands Montets >> Bivouac de l’Envers des Dorées In Argentières we took a lift to Grands Montets. And here I have got a first problem – my ARVA died. One week ago it worked and had 80% of charge. Today in Argentières it also was OK. But… Read more »

Col de l’Encrennaz. Ski tour with UniGe
Our initial idea was to take the lifts Flégère and l’Index from Chamonix, then traverse in the direction of Lac Blanc, climb Col de l’Encrennaz, and descent to Bérard valley. This is a classic ski tour Col de l’Encrenaz: Col des Montets >> Vallon de Bérard.
Pointe de Sur Cou. Ski tour with UniGe.
Today we went to Pointe de Sur Cou (1809 m) in the massif Bornes – Aravis. Actually it was a course for beginners organized by UniGe. I am not a beginner but since I did not have company it was a chance for me to go to the mountains. Moreover the course was guided by Michel… Read more »
