Fabulous October weather coincided with Reuben and Antony arriving in Chamonix. Antony reminded me he actually hadn't been rock climbing for 12 years and so we warmed up by climbing the Voie Princess above Les Bois.
On our second day we drove through the Mt Blanc tunnel, zoomed up the always impressive Sky Way cable car, enjoyed the obligatory cappuccino and climbed the Aiguille Marbre.

On our third day we rock climbed at Les Cheserys . Possibly the best mid altitude crag in the Chamonix Valley. Certainly it ticks all the boxes as a wonderful destination in October.
We climbed the mellow Voie Jaune. This was all the time Antony could afford and he flew home in the evening.
On our fourth day, Reuben and I decided to return again to Les Cheserys because it had been so good, fabulous views amazing position and warm autumn sunshine which allowed us to climb the immaculate route the L'EMHM.
