Landing roller-coaster style on a beautiful glacier was even better. Seeing a
bunch of unclimbed walls and peaks around got us dizzy. I was already content
with the trip and it was just the beginning.

Aiguille d'Argentière
Eager to get some acclimatization, we went to Argentiere basin for a weekend. In addition to pretty good snow, we got to do some sunbathing and climb a few pitches of ice.

Chulilla
Every-time I go to Spain, I am stunned by the quality and the quantity of bolted limestone. Whether you go to Siurana or Rodellar, there is usually a common theme - an old town, tucked away in a spectacular valley with miles of orange rock stretching in all direction.
