Dates: Jul 25, 2007 through Jul 28, 2007
Location: France
City or Place: Chamonix-Mont-Blanc
Skill Level: Intermediate
Categories: Mountaineering
Partner Status: Need Partners

I'm trying to get off 2 weeks unpaid from my corporate slave job in late July . My plan is to take 4-5 days to climb Mt. Blanc and perhaps one or two other peaks in the Alps. Then, I will spend the remaining 8-9 days back with my family in Spain and fly back to the US.

So, I need one or two partners to rope up for the glaciers. I haven't decided which routes, but it will probably be non-technical (PD+, AD).

Tentative dates to be around Chamonix: July 25-28, 2007. I haven't bought my plane ticket yet.

Let me know if you have a similar interest. PM or email me.

* UPDATE 6/21/2007: Unfortunately, I will not be able to take the unpaid time off this year. Therefore, I will not be in the Alps this summer 2007. Perhaps I can get away next year 2008. We shall see. Thank you to all who expressed interest to climb with me.
