Poor Bernard, we arrived at the Cosmiques refuge last night for Bernard to announce ( very bravely) that his blisters were not good and it would not be good idea to get up at 1.00 am and head up over Mont Blanc du Tacul as he was 100 percent certain that he would not make it. Instead this morning we did some ice and rock climbing work on the Point Lachenal and the Arete Laurance.. It was a superb day, however Bernards decision was the correct one. . The above photos show, Bernard climbing on the arete and the second photo shows the trail up Mont Blanc du Tacul. If you enlarge the photo you will also see ice climbers on the Contamine and Cherrie couloirs.
