Description

05.45 - 19.30, 8km, 1130m (+ 400m climbed). Vallée du Vénéon, Parc des Ecrins, France.
Stated fine but a front rolled in in the evening bring heavy rain. A long but fantastic day. Really a climbing day but with a worthwhile trek included. I finished leading most of the climb because Tim was tired and we were overtaking a couple of guys who were going a bit slow for our liking when you could see the front rolling towards us. The first rain hit us just as we stepped off the rock and only really opened up after I got to the car, Tim got a bit wet!
