And here are those words....
We started before dawn walking through St Jean in the near dark. From then on we were walking up hill. 25km of uphill and steep up hill. But wow what scenery! Getting above the mist/cloud that filled the valleys was thrilling.
Second breakfast at 10am was a bassk cake and coffee at Orisson, which was lovely. Then more up and up.
As with any mountain every turn brought more views and more path heading up. We stopped for lunch almost at the top and looked down on the Griffon Vultures circling below.
The final 10k heading down really hurt but there was a beer, good and a bed in the monetary awaiting. Wonderful day.
It’ll take 3-4 mins to watch but here’s a selection of photos from day 1.
