Chamonix Alpine Granite

 I arrived in Chamonix, the proverbial alpine climbing promise land, on a rainy day at the beginning of June. I had no climbing partners and no guiding days booked but I had an open mind and a flexible schedule. Initially, the three weeks of biblical rains dampened my alpine mojo but once the skies cleared, my psyche was on. 
I guided the big peaks during the week, acclimatizing and getting fit and then rallied my partners Crosby Johnston or Ross Berg to tick off a couple of the classic alpine rock climbs. 

I brought my GF1 camera and my Go Pro headcam to try and capture some of the essence of the Chamonix alpine experience.

Enjoy!

Peace.
