Checking the weather out, it was not getting any better, so like the
previous year we debated what to do and packed everything in the cars
heading for Chamonix. This made sense as we could do day routes there
rather than wait for a clear period.
We drove around to Chamonix in convoy and first tried to find space in the argentiere camp-site before setting once again for the mer de glace site. Once again it was packed out and we were all crowded together into one bay.
