Blisters all healed (bad pun!) it was time to make up for lost time and do some of the classic routes I had come to shamelessly bag. We headed up on the cable car at about 9am to the Midi Station and then descended to the base of the Cosmiques Arete, dropping our caamping gear off at the Col du Midi. What we hadn’t considered is that it was Bastille Day. Route mobbed! Really enjoyed the easy climbing and especially topping out up the ladder on to the viewing platfor of the Midi Station! Good recce for a return this winter I feel.
