A quick rematch with the Petite Aig. Verte

by overflow50

A quick half days climb to the summit of the Petite Aig. Verte, since neither Georgia or I felt like a long day but wanted to get some more alpine climbing in.

We followed the same route as before (but much faster) then continued along the ridge to the true summit, via some "interesting climbing", which included a series of 3 down mantles in a row and down mantling off a granite slab onto a rocking block in crampons! All good fun!

No photos from me, all from Georgia (I was too lazy to carry the dSLR).
