Here’s some footage from yesterday of us on the West Summit of the Combeynot, a big, cold climb to the summit where we at least found the sun and had a picnic. Variable conditions on the way down.

I’m adding a link to that from my site.  Looks awesome.  The shot of those first couple turns with the sluff, and then the pan to the group directly bellow with all the exposure is great, made me nervous.  Keep up the good work!

I agree, I’m not sure they were aware that Luc was going to come that way. I was off to the side. Not very clever though, mea culpa. Just to the left is a 400 meter cliff, if the sluff had gone a bit further it could have been serious
