Haute Route DIY info

Since snow is melting fast I'm dreaming of our Alps trip last summer from Chamonix to Zermat. Below you'll find a link to the xcel document highlighting our particulars if anyone is interested in doing it. I'd highly recommend it.

We went as an independant group- as such we avoided the high costs associated with hiring a guide service. Our specific route information can be downloaded here with alternative weather routes here.

The xcell files clearly show locations, distances, duration, elevation gain/loss, hut details, contact info... everything you need to do the trip yourself (minus the map and gear).

A big thanks go out to Mary Floeder for being our trip leader. If anyone is interested in getting a detailed gear list shoot me an email and I'll let you know what we brought/used wished we had.

Thanks again go out to Patagonia, Gregory Packs, High Gear and Salomon for the gear.
