Day 4 "Haute Route" trek.
We made our way on a lofty traverse via the Sentier des Chamois to the Col du Termin.
We then continued to the rocky Col de Louvie and traversed below the Grand Desert Glacier where we passed a series of small tarns before ascending once more to the Col de Prafleuri and descending
steeply to the Cabane de Prafleuri.
My son and I undertook one of the most challenging treks, the Haute Route.
It was a rigorous 10 day trek from the Chamonix Valley in France to Zermatt in Switzerland, 180 kilometers, 11 high mountain cols with approx. 12,000 meters of ascent.
This is a tougher trek than the Tour du Mont Blanc.
Trek Grade 4: Demanding, an excellent level of fitness and stamina required for big mountain days with continued and substantial height gain and descent of over + or -1500m per day plus sustained trekking over distance for 10 days.
I'm ready for another trek, I love the mountains so much. 💗
Interesting Blind on EOS operated Route 86. London Overground does not serve Waltham Cross. This is also shown on their otherwise excellent Route map here: www.eoslondon.com/assets/pdfs/86_87_Route_Map.pdf
IAIS' CBBI, lead by 502 and an SD38-2, struggle up the grade at New Lenox, IL. It's certainly doesn't match the Rock Island's main event, NKP 765, but I was more than happy to catch this!
The historic Mother Road or Main Street of America runs 2,451 miles (3,945 km) from Chicago to Santa Monica. We have seen a renewed interest in traveling the route as pilgrims come from all over the world. This past weekend Springfield, Mo hosted the first Route 66 Festival.
Route 89 Arizona, up early for the sunrise and took advantage of the setting moon. Lake Powell was at my back.

The last time the 114 ran to Rayners Lane was 1966 (50 years ago!), unless of course there's been a diversion like this one since then.
Today it returned, allowing for this delightfully unusual snap!
Back in 1966, the route ran from Rayners Lane to Edgware via the current H9 to South Harrow, then the 114/140 to Harrow and finally the whole 340 to Edgware - showing that the route now is very different to how it was 50 years ago!
