The following photo collection was taken in the first week in May 2005. The aim was to climb Mt.Blanc but due to bad weather high up we changed plans and made ascents of Aig du Toule, Mt.Blanc du Tacul, Petite aig Verte, Mont Dolent and an ascent of the Glacier du Milieu.

 We skied down from the Aig du Midi into the Valley Blanche.  From there we skinned up to the Aig du Toule 3534m a good warm-up day for the guys.
