It's there! on August 12-15, 2023, our team managed to conquer the summit of the highest point in Europe - Mont Blanc at a height of 4,808 m above sea level. It was a difficult journey, but it was worth it. Come and watch our dramatic video, where there is a lot of great footage, including the highlight photo and the final info!
FIRST DAY (12.8.) - ARRIVAL IN LE FAYET ON THE FRENCH SIDE OF MONT BLANC
SECOND DAY (13.8.) - WE PARTIALLY USE ZUBÁČKA, BUT WE LEAVE THE STATION EARLIER. THEN WE CONTINUE IN THE DIRECTION OF AUNT ROUSSE'S COTTAGE AT AN ALTITUDE OF 3,160 MAS. THE ASCENT WAS APPROXIMATELY 5 KM AND 1,100 METERS OF ALTITUDE. WE WILL NOT CONTINUE FURTHER BECAUSE OF ACCLIMATIZATION.
THIRD DAY (14.8.) - FROM TETE'S COTTAGE WE ARE GOING TO THE NEXT STOP - GOUTER COTTAGE AT AN ALTITUDE OF 3,860 MAS. WE LEAVE EARLY TO BE AT THE COTTAGE AROUND EIGHT IN THE MORNING. THIS GIVES US GOOD TIME TO ACCLIMATE. DISTANCE BETWEEN COTTAGES APPROXIMATELY 1.7 KM AND CLIMB 660 M.
FOURTH DAY (8/15) PEAK DAY - AT 3:00 AM IN THE MORNING WE LEAVE FOR MONT BLANC. AROUND 6:00 AM WE HAVE A SMALL STOP AT THE VALLOT COTTAGE DUE TO RAIN. WE REACH THE TOP OF MONT BLANC AROUND 8:30 - 4.2 KM 1,100 METERS OF ELEVATION. WE WON'T "WARM UP" HERE FOR A LONG TIME, WE'RE HEADING DOWN AGAIN RIGHT AWAY, OVER 2,800 M OF DESCENT AWAITS US ON ZUBÁČK TO GET TO THE CAMP BY THE EVENING.
THE CLIMB WAS ONLY HALF SUCCESSFUL - OUT OF THE ORIGINAL 8 PEOPLE REACHED THE SUMMIT 4. THE REST TURNED BACK BEFORE THE SUMMIT DUE TO COMPLICATIONS WITH THE ALTITUDE.
SO ... MONT BLANC ... WE WILL NOT SEE YOU LAST
