The Tour of Mont Blanc
Let's circle The Mont Blanc massif. We will start (and finish) north of Chamonix. Every day we climb about a thousand meters toward a mountain pass on a ridge that descends from the summit, and descend about a thousand meters to the deep gorges created by the thawing water, where we find more accommodation. We will be impressed by the dramatic scenery, the rich alpine vegetation, glaciers, flowing streams, and get wet in the rain. I walked around The Mont Blanc in July-August 2018.
