Weaving a Way North

Warming up near Bourg Saint Maurice

I had to check the diary - almost five weeks since we left Chez Arran and we have had a pleasant perambulation though destinations old and new.
We started in Orpierre which was nice and quiet for a change, then onwards to Briançon. After 10 days there we move over the Maurienne valley for a week or so. Another set of passes got us to Bourg Saint Maurice and a new set of cliffs to go at.
Currently we are in another new area - the Bauge mountains in the grip of a heatwave, 32C today made the climbing hard work. 

Apprentice Grimpeurs 2 (5c) - Falaise de Croe

Three weeks left before we have to catch the ferry, should be able to squeeze in a few more venues. We are meeting Colin for a week south of Dijon - that will doubtless be hard work - but the usual fun.
After that it is back to Blighty to get all the usual jobs done - the dentists and the opticians are already booked!
