Recently a local lad was shot and killed in a hunting accident. The incident rocked our small community here in the French Alps and the ball has started rolling for changes to be made to make our mountains a safer place for everyone.
I set out to complete a 'Week of Peaks' - the mission was to climb one of our mountain peaks each day, wearing obnoxiously orange safety kit and encourage others to join me in the hopes of raising awareness of the cause. We need to share our beautiful mountains in a safe manner.
Here's Peak #3, Pointe de Vorlaz. This one was pretty special. There were 14 people and 3 dogs on this climb. Most of us know Vorlaz pretty well - it's a formidable climb in the Winter months with a rewarding offpiste descent. In the summer there are no trails to take you to the top. We had to make our own way up there and back down also. Great fun...
