One week to go

My flight to Chamonix leaves at 4pm on friday. Cant believe the trip is almost here. Gear swapping is complete and i am pretty sure i have all the essentials. Most importantly, i got both maps yesterday that cover the entire Mont Blanc Massif. Its scary when you open both of them and see just how big this area really is. Just a bit bigger than the East Coast mountains. Although bigger, i am pretty confident that the east has prepared me for just about any level of suffering out there!

When i tell people that i am going climbing with my Dad in the Alps, they are all amazed that he is doing this with me. The funny thing is that i just hope to keep up with him.
