| HIGH EXPEDITIONS | Route Climbed: Aneto's normal route from La Renclusa via Portillon Superior  Date Climbed: May 10, 2008 | |
| Pirinees highest peak!.. Couldn't ask for better weather. We Héloïse and I) started at 5:30 am from La Renclusa Hut. The snow was soft but the snowshoes made our climb easier at the begining. Can't say the same about the traverse after Portillon Superior, we had to take our snowshoes off during the traverse to the glacier. No problems at Paso de Mahoma, nice scrambling up! I got to the top just after the clouds rolled in. Got back to the hut (to pick up my sleeping bag) via Aigualluts. Total climbing time: 12 hours RT. Beautiful mountain. | |

| John Climber | On the way to 'The 17 summits' Date Climbed: Sep 4, 2007 | |
| Guiding Medical Doctor Ulloa, the Spanish specialist in mountain medicine, up to his 16th summit of his project 'The 17 summits'(the highests tops of each of the 17 Spanish regions). Very arduous walk through extense boulder fields before reaching Portillon Superior (difficult to find when you have not been there before) and after this pass up till the glacier. 13 hours of activity. Summit at 14:00 hrs (after 7 hours of walk). Luckily, weather turned to good after midday (rare in the Pyrenees). | |

| My brother Gabi and me started from La Besurta at 4h30am and reached the Aneto's summit at 9h30am. Passage of Mahoma was done without rope and with decisiveness. We were back in La Besurta at 13h20pm. Weather was excellent during all the adventure. We celebrated with Suso in Benasque this excellent climb. Our second 3000m. | |
