--- title: Arêtes du Gerbier date: 2014-10-31 tags: - mountains - alpinism featuredImage: gallery/rappel.jpeg --- Recently there seems to be a theme of re-doing old classics with new people; this time Rob, JB and I took a crack at the [arêtes du Gerbier][c2c]. I had previously done this route with Rob and Greg about two years ago, although at that time everything was in dense cloud and still partially covered in snow. It was good to re-do the ridge as it's meant to be done, on a lovely sunny day when you can really get a sense of the space to either side. As before Rob has an [entry on his blog][blog_story] with a more detailed account of the day's events (and he has copyright on the images in the gallery). All in all a great day out. {{<gallery>}} [c2c]: http://www.camptocamp.org/routes/54152/fr/gerbier-traversee-des-aretes [blog_story]: https://robestivill.wordpress.com/2014/10/31/aretes-du-gerbier-the-razor-and-other-stories/
