Heading to JFK

Sunrise on the Adirondacks. 

In a couple of hours I will be heading south on the Northway. Tomorrow I take a red-eye to Geneva. By Friday at 1:30 we will be checking into the Club Vagabond in Chamonix, and blowing off some carbon dioxide by skinning up to the base of the Aiguille Index for a view of the Mont Blanc Massif.  Saturday we will probably ski the Vallee Blanche. It should take six days to ski the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt and we leave on Sunday. Once in Zermatt we will get a rest day, repack, and head to the Hornli Hutte to climb the Matterhorn.  We fly out of Geneva on March 24th.  

WE ARE PSYCHED!
