We are on our travels again.
Hopefully on BD1343 to Lyon by the time you read this.
We plan to walk around the Écrins by way of a 13 day ‘hutting’ tour. Our itinerary is here. The weather forecast is good, as is normal for this time of year in the Alps. It’s an International Expedition, with TGO Challengers Susan and Roy joining us from Glastonbury, Connecticut, and Ken is popping over from Ottawa.
I’ve not replaced my phone since our E5 trip, so postings may be brief, and I may have difficulty in picking up your comments. I’ll try, though.
The route is one of Kev Reynolds’ favourites. We are looking forward to it.
The picture above was taken at the Col de Chavière, in the Vanoise region, on 1 September 2007.
That’s about as close as we’ve been to the Oisans, which have appeared enticingly in the distance on a number of our Alpine trips.

Hi Pheerunner, enjoying the blog!
I have been reading your gear reviews and found them to be very detailed and useful. I was wondering if you would be interested in reviewing some of our items of kit. We are a Manchester based firm offering premium walking attire at wholesale prices. I'd love to send you an item from our range of jackets. Please drop me a line if this would be something you'de be interested in at helen@quaysidegroup.com
Hope your travel has gone to plan and that you have a wonderful trip in the Alps.
Many thanks,
Helen
Hi Martin,
Another hut Jolly eh. Nice. Should be ideal with the weather in that area. I see Sue has changed kit from the last trip. At least you are finding posting pics ok. Guess what! It's a shocker here in Gairloch. We only have a view of the loch, no hills visible.
Hi Martin
Looks superb and if anything would take me back to the Alps it's your photograph! We are off ourselves imminently and should manage to follow you on the BB, although commenting is not an option. Enjoy.
