we climbed the Dibona this weekend:
and stayed at the Refuge du Soreiller for two nights. The food was ok, but it was the typically uncomfortable "group living" arrangement: bunk beds, picnic tables, no lights etc etc. The climb itself was great, except for the rescue helicopter which was shuttling people back down to the refuge and presumeably to the hospital. Heres one of the rescue dudes getting a ride:
even though its tuesday, my calves are still acheing from the 1100 meter approach and descent
(not to mention the climb itself!)
