Dôme des Ecrins Mountaineering

Fred, Rémy, Aurélien and Gaétan join me for three days in the Écrins, from ice skills on Glacier Blanc to the Dôme des Écrins via Pic d’Arsine.

Two mountaineers follow a snowy ridge on Pic d’Arsine beside a large cornice.

Three days getting a taste of the high mountains with Fred, Rémy, Aurélien and my old uni mate Gaétan… Three cracking days, impeccable weather and a team that spends a lot of time laughing!

J1 — Ice skills on Glacier Blanc

We start with an ice skills session and a bit of exploring on Glacier Blanc.

J2 — Traversing Pic d’Arsine

We traverse Pic d’Arsine past some impressive cornices, then treat ourselves to a lazy afternoon at the Refuge des Écrins.

J3 — Climbing the Dôme des Écrins

We finish with an ascent of the Dôme des Écrins, where conditions have just come right for climbing without skis!
