Full description

Two day climbing route to one of the most mysterious peaks of the Alps Grand Jorasses.

Описание на русском см. ниже.

The normal route to Pointe Walker is passing through a series of rocky buttresses separating the Planpincieux glacier. In spite of the fact that the route is categorized as AD (3A), do not underestimate it. Height to gain 1400 meters, climbing along the rocks alternates with the passage of a glacier with a large number of crevasses s and seracs. All this requires a good physical shape, and a climbing experience.

Day 1: approach to the Boccalatte Hut

Day 2: Climb Pointe Walker the highest peak of the Grandes Jorasses and decent to the Valley

Please note that I can take only one person!

if you want to ask me any additional questions pleas contact me.

Двух дневная программа восхождения на одну из самых таинственых вершин Альп Гран Жорасс (Grandes Jorasses).

Классический путь подъема на наисшую из вершин массива пик Уолкера (Pointe Walker) проходит через серию скальных контрфорсов разделяющих ледник Планпинчуэкс (Planpincieux). Не смотря на то, что маршрут категорирован всего как AD (3А), не стоит недооценивать его. Набор высот от хижины составляет 1400 метров, лазание по скалм чередуется прохождением ледника с большим количеством трещи и сераков. Все это требует хорошоей физической формы, и альпинисткого опыта.

2 день: Восхождение на Гран Жорасс и спуск в долину

Важно учесть, что на даннм маршруте безопасно работать можно толькьо с одним участиком.

To be honest, I ended up in the mountains by accident. A friend of mine literally brought me to a climbing club. But I guess, it was my destiny. The mountains had turned my life upside down.

Of course, at first, I was inspired by something adventure, like climbing a difficult route or even making the first ascent. But over time, I realized that this was not the main reason why the mountains were so attractive to me. I was at home, in the mountains, or in other words, the mountains became my home.

I started from alpinism during my very first visit in the Caucasus (Russia). A bit later I fell in love with rock climbing. It was attracted me so much, that in addition to my usual climbing activity, I started to explore some unknown crags with my friends. Thus, almost from scratch, at the Mount Induk (Caucasus, Russia) there was established a new wonderful climbing area (climbinduk.org).

In the middle of 2000s I realized that it was not enough for me to have only a sports component in the mountains. I wanted something more that would have captured me with new strength. Already then, I did not perceive the mountains as a place for rest or vacation, but as something completely different, where I can be at home, not as a visitor. Therefore, it is obvious that the mountain guide, as a profession, has become a logical development of my sport career.

While working as alpine guide I got acquainted with ski-touring. Sincerely speaking, for a long time, skiing remained a purely applied sport for me. But over time, I became involved in skiing and freeriding. It allowed me to look at the mountains from a completely different perspective.

Nowadays, I have more than 20 years of experience in the mountains. During this time, I have made more than 300 ascents to the tops of the Caucasus, the Alps, the Pamirs, the Tien-Shan and the Himalayas. I participated in several winter expeditions and climbed high-altitude mountains, furthermore I made some first ascents in the Caucasus and the Alps. I feel comfortable in any terrain and I like to combine different climbing styles and activities in the mountains.
