Sunrise on the summit
Done via normal route from Col du Midi as a part of acclimatization before the Mont Blanc. Somehow we have managed to see the very first rays of the sun on the summit - perfect timing :)

Normal route
From Cosmiques hut. Nice day, but the route was a bit iced-up.
Hi, Possible. I met a rope-team of three who were descending while we were on our way up about 2/3rds of the way, between 7-8 am; they spoke to us and advised us to summit soon. On our way down we met countless parties, so I don't remember any of them individually.
Hi, there was three of us so we have probably met :)

Accidental summit
We were on the three mounts traverse, but had planned to pass by Tacul on the ascent and save it for the descent perhaps, if we would feel like it. However, we took a wrong turn in the darkness and ended up on Tacul anyway!

Summer 2008!
Skied and climbed: Couloir Jager, Couloir Diable, Regular North Face, and the Contamine-Negri. Climbed the Gervassutti Pillar.
Love this mountain!

Acclimatization before MB traverse
Climbed it to acclimatize before a Mont-Blanc traverse the next day. The face was in great conditions but we were very slow (no wonder: one of us came down with HACE the next day...). Very windy on the last snow ridge but the rock scramble was sheltered and quite pleasant. Amazing views from the summit!
Left the refuge at 6:15, summit around 11:00 and back down at 13:00.
