Thunder and hail


Started climb at 09:00 on the frozen snow. After a short while we reached the grand colouir. I crossed it first as fast as possible but without loosing foothold. Kicked hard each time and had good use of the ice axe. Daniel followed without incident. Next we climbed the rocky ridge and we had to use both hands as support plenty of times. Rested at Gouter hut before continuing 10 min where we dug space for the tent. Weather has become worse and a thunderstorm passed by, luckily we are not the highest point although close to a ridge. Boring pic from inside the tent.
