Ju and Maxime tackle the Davin route on Aiguillette du Lauzet in mountain boots: old-school chimneys, growing trust in their feet and a view of the Écrins.
Today Maxime joins us to climb the Davin route on Aiguillette du Lauzet. An old-school route that might surprise modern climbers used to a bargain grade now and then! Most of the climbing is in chimneys, and good old IV+ still has plenty of life in it…
Naturally, for the mountaineering practice, we climb the whole thing in mountain boots. It gives my two companions a chance to work on trusting their feet on smears. After a proper battle on the direct start, it clicks for Ju. As his confidence grows, his feet seem to stick better and better!
We finish on top of the Aiguillette, a proper summit with a bit of style and the Écrins right across the valley!
Back home just in time for a drink. A full day out!
