TWH: 827 Mont Blanc to the Matterhorn A Memorable Trek
This trip had everything, meadows, mountains, snow, rock and the thrill of the great outdoors. However, the trip wasn't just about the wonderful scenery and hiking, a large part of its success was the team spirit that was fostered by our leader John Briggs and camp manager Egle.
A wonderful tour. Most of the accommodation was excellent, just one poor hotel in the two weeks. Also, the staff in them were very helpful. The walking was great, mostly on well-maintained paths (kudos to the Swiss) and nothing too technical, like ropes or ladders to be used. There were a couple of tough passes to cross, the Hohturli and the Bunderchrinde, where Alpine experience is useful, but otherwise all was comfortable. The views were magnificent, especially Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau, but some fresh snow meant great vistas for the last few days.
