ya'll can come to Montana, fuck, half of California is already here... just leave Wyoming to us lamewads and mosquitos and what-not.....nothing to see there....
Spent a couple weeks around Chamonix climbing in August. Met some neat Polish guys (who took the nicest photos).
Here's one of us rapping down the South face of Aguille du Midi after doing this really neat route voie contamine (you can barely see us if you know where to look)

"Aguille du plan" where we climbed our first week. It looks crumbly but the granite is actually very good on the face.

the North face of the Aguille du midi. Apparently the route up the face is not too bad - i didn't want anything to do with this monster
