Gran Paradiso
Ascent of Gran Paradiso (Graian Alps, Italy), with Alberto Alesina and Jean Imbs, July 20, 1999
Timeline:
I have only faint memories of this trip. The day before the climb we hiked up to the Chabod hut, where we spent the night. The next day we made the ascent with a guide. Alberto and Jean teased me during the climb, which caused me to lash out at them. The weather turned bad as we approached the summit, which was crowded and had no views.
