No, I don't think so. Do "click" on Weather Forecast Report of the Tourist Office Chamonix below in that page (in French too):

On the french side of Mont Blanc, all rescue actions are free. With or without insurance. This is a real problem...

Hey, I see you've done Rainier. How does it compare to Mt. Blanc difficulty wise?
Rainier was for sure easier for me as it was really just a "walk" up (mind you a long one that cost me a toenail!) whereas Mt Blanc has a few quite exposed rock and snow ridges. But, both fantastic climbs!
Do you need to be roped up on the standard route on Mt. Blanc? It seems that it's mostly a 35 degree snow climb with some rock? Doesn't sound too bad.
