The chance to be in the mountains and share experiences with your kids is one of the best things in the world. The trouble is the older they get the more difficult it is to organise, especially when your girls are in their 20's .
Peter Collins is particularly good at getting his daughters Lucy and Alice to come mountaineering with him. Certainly better than last year when he only managed to get Alice to climb because Lucy somehow contrived to twist her ankle the night before we were due to start.
We had three days together. We did the traverse of Aguille Marbree:
The next day in different weather we traversed the Crochue ridge above Flegere
On our third day we went rock climbing at Les Cheserys above Argentiere. We started by climbing the famous,spectacular yet easy Aiguilette d'Argentiere.
We finished by climbing the classic voie Bleue. I climbed with Alice and Pete led up behind me and climbed with Lucy.
