Ich möchte euch die Lektüre dieses Tourenberichtes empfehlen:
http://wmjokra.home.cern.ch/wmjokra/...ncsummary.html
Was glaubt ihr, ist dieser Bericht getürkt (also von erfahrenen Leuten so geschrieben, um zu provozieren), oder ist er echt (also von Ahnungslosen geschrieben, die das mit unglaublichem Glück überlebt haben)?
Er handelt von 6 Anfängern, die den Mont Blanc bestiegen haben (über die Gouter Route), und dann über die Grands Mulets Route abstiegen (natürlich ohne jede Gletschererfahrung).
Was es heißt, über den Jonction Gletscher ohne Idee von Spaltenbergung abzusteigen, will ich hier nicht näher ausführen, sondern nur ein paar Auszüge aus dem Bericht zum Besten geben (der mich so erheitert hat, daß ich es für getürkt gehalten habe, aber ich fürchte jetzt, es ist doch wahr und tatsächlich so passiert).
Also Leute, eineinhalb Kilo Bananen eingepackt und auf zum Mont Blanc!

Beispiele:
Everyone went buying the things that they needed for the trip. I bought a lot of chocolate, bananas and water (3 liters of water, 1,5 kg of bananas and loads of chocolate bars).
We still had too much in our backpacks so one of us left his pair of jeans, shoes, and belt in a plastic bag hidden behind a rock.
After some discussion we decided that 4 of us would take an alternative route down called "Les Grand Mulets". We took that decision because with over 20 kg of backpack on the back the descent down the same way as up wasn't really appealing to us.
After have been talking to the personal working in the refuge and after they had discussed it with the helicopter crew the helicopter personal agreed to bring down the two backpacks for a 1000 FRF, a bargain in our eyes as our lives were at stake.
The answer why we were alone came kind of quickly after two big avalanches passed us by. I have had read that in warm weather the snow gets wet which increases the risk of avalanches.
We also asked for the way as my map only reached down half of the way.
We were sitting down, in debris from an old avalanche, putting on "second skin" on our sore feet when two persons passed by running. One shouted, apparently the guide (again), that we couldn't be seated here with the high risk of avalanches.
Kommentar zum letzten: Man muß nur die nötige Ruhe haben.
