“I was happy to meet with Alan Tissieres for the climb to Grand Combins. We were racing together in ski mountaineering a long, long time ago. Now he’s a mountain guide and it was nice to share a few summits with him!

Grand Combins was actually more technical than I expected. It was a very nice climb, but it’s a dangerous mountain because there’s a lot of rockfall and it’s not always easy to navigate, so I was glad not to be solo. 

We started towards Combin de Valsorey at sunset and climbed through the night on the glacier to Grand Combin and Combin de la Tsessette, the 49th, 50th and 51st summits of my Alpine Connections project. 

After a bit more than 9 hours of climbing, we were back to Bourg Saint-Pierre at around 2:30am.”
