  • Stunning Mont Blanc climbing via Goûter Route (Normal Route)! After taking the Tramway du Mont Blanc to the Gare du Nid d'Aigle (2372m) we started the ascent to the Refuge de Tête Rousse (3167m) to stay there for one night. The next day we crossed the Grand Couloir early in the morning and climbed up steeply to the Refuge du Goûter (3835), where a breathtaking sunrise awaited us. After a short break our rope team continued the climb to the highest peak of the Alps. We reached the summit at 10:10 a.m.. Then we started the long descent back to the Gare du Nid d'Aigle.
    Thanks to our guide Andreas Frech!

    Congratulations. Excellent photography. Excellent rhythm. Excellent soundtrack. Of the most beautiful ascents to Mont Blanc that I have seen filmed. Whoever sees your movie will want to do mountaineering.
    I wanted to go up in July 1986, but when I left the old Gouter there were blizzards and storms and we decided to take the flight from the Dome de Gouter. In this video I have seen what I could not do then. Beautiful. Thank you very much for sharing.

    • @maltmountain
      @maltmountain  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, also über die Gouter Route ist der Mont Blanc technisch nicht schwierig. Natürlich muss man schwindelfrei sein und es gibt ein paar gefährlichere Stellen, wie das Grand Couloir. Zudem war, so wie wir es gemacht haben, der Berg konditionell relativ anspruchsvoll. Wir hatten aber optimale Wetterverhältnisse. Ich kann mir daher gut vorstellen, dass es bei noch mehr Wind und Schnee oben deutlich ungemütlicher werden kann..

      Hola, Básicamente, el Mont Blanc no es una montaña técnicamente difícil. Hay algunos lugares que son un poco más peligrosos (Grand Couloir). Por eso creo que una guía es una buena forma de evitar riesgos. Tuvimos condiciones climáticas ideales. Con mucho viento y nieve, puede haber peligros que no puedo evaluar.

      I’m glad you like the video! We made it up in two days with one night at the Refuge de la Tête Rousse. As a experienced mountaineer a solo climb shouldn’t be a problem. The mountain isn’t technically challenging. For me it was the saved way to go with a guide. But now with those weather conditions i would dare to climb the route solo. But as the weather and snow conditions can change quickly i still would prefer a guide:)

    • @maltmountain
      @maltmountain  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you:) if the weather conditions are perfect it could be possible. Especially for an experienced person it would be doable because the Gouter Route isn’t technically challenging. But if summiting Mont Blanc is one of your dreams, I really can recommend to do it with a professional guide. It’s still a very high mountain with strong winds and sometimes there can be unexpected weather changes. Moreover there are some dangerous parts like the Grand Couloir. So in a professional rope team you would have better chances to reach the summit and it would definitely be the safest way:)

Jego wysokość również się zmienia: na przykład pierwszy pomiar GPS przeprowadzony przez francuski instytut geograficzny (IGN) w 2001 r. wyniósł 4808,4 m. W 2007 Mont Blanc osiągnął prawie 4811 m, w 2009 zmierzono 4810,45 m, a w 2015 ponownie 4808,73 m. Dlatego wysokość Mont Blanc jest często podawana inaczej." (Wikipedia)😅
