Hiking the Southern Alps on the Tour des Écrins!- Hexatrek 15

[@tijmendr1]

The Ecrins are just stupid beautiful. I can't wait to hike this stage one day. Also, the choir pianist/singer in me couldn't help but smile when your choir girl was showing

[@LaurenRoerick]

Soo beautiful! You’ll love it :) and aww yay! Music nerds for life haha

[@tijmendr1]

@@LaurenRoerick I spent a week doing day trips around the east side of the ecrins already, and this summer I through hiked for a week around the Mont Thabor (end of stage 2), so it's a joy to see you fall in love with the bit of France that I've spent so many happy holidays in

Whole lot of beauty in this Stage. I’ll never understand people with attitudes like 6’5; jerk. Contrary to some “friendly” advice in these comments, don’t change a thing. Wind is a part of the game. Well done, Lauren.👏

[@LaurenRoerick]

Thank you! Haha there’s no way around the wind really, it’s a windy trail!

[@clintwesly]

“mountain goat nonsense”! 😂😂 that will be going through my head every time i have a stupid steep climb on a hike now.

[@LaurenRoerick]

😂😂 happy to help!

[@StepsbyKaatje]

Great to have a few days of comfort and rest! That sounded like a lot of altitide meters... That refuge looked nice. Too bad that the other people didn't make you feel welcome! Good going! Have a great Sunday! Kaat

[@LaurenRoerick]

Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@ervinslens]

What a gorgeous presentation my friend, this whole area looks brilliant!

[@LaurenRoerick]

It was incredible!

[@robthewaywardwoodworker9956]

I bet your feet really enjoyed that cold stream! At the end, you should do a compilation video with all the highlights and none of the wind noise. LOL

[@LaurenRoerick]

Yeah it was necessary! And nothing to be done about the wind 🤷🏼‍♀️ just a windy trail

[@doureveur]

Les Écrins portent bien leur nom. Congrats, not so many people can do this part.

[@LaurenRoerick]

Yes it’s so beautiful! But also very difficult for sure.

[@tangenttrails]

These views are absolutely amazing! What a spectacular journey.🙌

[@LaurenRoerick]

Suuuch a beautiful section!

[@wncmountainliving4279]

Keep on Trekking!! Appreciate the sharing!!

[@LaurenRoerick]

Thank you!!

[@lanajohnson7073]

Wow!! Just spectacular everywhere! Except the tiny ledge you were walking on with the really steep fall - didn't like that part!! lol

[@LaurenRoerick]

Thanks! Hahah fair enough 😅

[@ec4781]

amazing mountain views! great job tackling that!

[@LaurenRoerick]

Thank you!!

[@wineberryred]

The last climb in Stage 2 was the Stage 2 Final and you passed so you got to move on to Stage 3. Great video!

[@LaurenRoerick]

Haha exactly! The final challenge

[@moyashisoba]

Hey Lauren, I'm going to hike the Tour des Écrins in about 2 weeks and I'm planning to sleep at the Cabane de Jas Lacroix as well. Do you know if it's possible/allowed to camp (bivouac) there? Or around there.

[@LaurenRoerick]

Hey! That’s so exciting :) you can usually bivouac just outside the refuges - they often have specific spaces allocated for it. Shouldn’t be a problem!

[@doureveur]

These noodles can be cold soaked. Instant rehydration.

[@LaurenRoerick]

True, but also gross haha. I prefer them hot 😅

[@stribonit2]

Your videos from the Hexatrek are very good. In the the video sequences where your are talking and there is some wind noise and you have added background music, it can be difficult to hear what your are saying. I will sugest you don't add any bckground music to your videos in the sequences where you are talking.
