General opinion
Trek around Mont Blanc is my second Hiking experience in the mountains. The first was around the Annapurna. But did not have experience carrying a backpack with all the equipment (in the Himalayas, the Sherpas had carried the main burden) and overnight stays in the tent (in the Himalayas, lodges, guesthouses). Thanks to the recommendations of Stas, how to secure backpack, wearing a full backpack is not provided inconvenience. And after the enjoyment, the beauty of the Alps, transitions 10-12 km with ascents, descents and passes seem difficult. And after the transitions was waiting for us beautiful campsites! Hot water shower houses with a fireplace where you can relax. And delicious dinners! Especially the soup! And overnight in the tent was no longer an inconvenience, but a nice addition to the campaign. Before sleep still remembered the chimes in the mountains from the bells of cows grazing in the meadows, flocks of sheep on mountain meadows in Italy (a story from the Bible reminded), village houses, buried in flowers. And in Italy there was a sauna! And hospitable hostess of the campsite in the morning were treated to croissants. Everything was perfect! But even in such a simple hike can happen every.... This is where an experienced instructor! And I was lucky that they were Stas.
My body is difficult to tolerate any lift - even not in the mountains. But during the descent he rejoices! Is tired, and I can still walk long distances. During the descent I have the feeling of flying! And in this euphoria I sprained my ankle and sat on it. Thanks to the skillful actions of Stanislav, my fracture was without displacement and complications. But in the hospital to communicate with doctors (it was Switzerland) helped my friends on a hike. I left one in the hospital, until he was sure that I helped. And with the insurance company to contact me failed, thanks to the knowledge my friends. Thank you very much! Leg has been healed, the plaster was removed. And experience the unforgettable trekking! Now the joke is the insurance company checked the new bone to grow - new campaigns!
PS In may, we are going to Svaneti! If Stanislav would take - I looked, it was the instructor.
