Off piste

Quite literally - a day off the piste today - which as it snowed all day & cloud base was just above my head was quite convenient really.
A trip into Chamonix to meet a new employer for a face to face to back up our email exchanges - and all confirmed as Guide for two Haute Routes this summer - woohoo, fun times ahead.
Had a bit of a fan boy moment when I realised the chap drinking coffee & reading a book next to us was the legend that is Kilian Jornet, but I managed to act French & mostly ignore him, but was pleased to see even the top top guys like to lounge over a coffee & book when the weather craps out.

Blip is the fantastic train station right opposite the bar of choice for climbers in Chamonix - I posted the view from here on September 1st - but for some reason the Blip app won't let me do a link.
