"So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life."

One of the finest traverses in the AlpsI did this traverse going the opposite way - and tent based. I camped with Alun G first between Nid D'Aigle and Tete Rouse, up on top of the Aiguille du Gouter (long before they became strict about camping there) - and then after the fine experience of traversing Mont Blanc and Mont Maudit, camped again on Col Maudit - before summiting Mont Blanc du Tacul and finishing on Aiguille du Midi.
In 2013, climbing with rgg I did another similar traverse, starting in Italy with the Gonella Route and then finishing with descent of the 3 Monts - although we didn't take in summits of Maudit and Tacul on this occasion.
