Elliz' Expeditie Mont Blanc - Dag 8

Yesterday early in the evening they were all back in the Refuge Le Gouter.

Elliz felt sick, very sick, and showed symptoms of altitude sickness, having a severe headache and feeling nauseous all the time.

This early morning it had not changed much. Fortunately they descended quickly.

Around 2.30pm they arrived at the little train going down, and in the afternoon they were back in the Gite Le Vagabond.

The sickness was vanishing slowly but surely. She hadn't felt ever so terribly sick in her life.

In the evening they had a closing dinner.

Tomorrow morning after breakfast they will head for home.

It was a big adventure, with many obstacles and constraints, without making the ultimate goal, however, in many ways crossing bounderies and creating lifelong memories.

See further details of the overnight stay at Refuge Le Gouter and the technical difficult descend to Chamonix at Expeditienet.
