Alps 13 × 4000
28-day trip, dedicated to highest peaks of French and Swiss Alps. My goal was to climb, in July 2009, 13 4000-m peaks in France and Switzerland. I’ve chosen mountains which were varying in height and difficulty, allowing myself to get gradual acclimatization. I moved lightweight and my base-camps were located in the valleys of Saas Fee, Zermatt and Chamonix.
