I've no mountaineering experience but have done a fair amount of sport climbing, and a little bit of guided ice climbing. If I was to hire a guide for two days in Chamonix, what would you reccomend as a good first mountaineering experience? I'd ideally like something that covers a bit of everything (glacier travel, snow, mixed rock/ice, etc) but most important is I'm a photographer and a jaw dropping view would be great.
From looking at photos I think Aiguille Verte would be the best choice from a photographer perspective but unfortunately not exactly somewhere for a beginner What about Aiguille du Tour, Aiguille de la Nonne, Mont Blanc du Tacul.. are these all realistic objectives? Which do you think would be the best experience and/or give the most impressive views?
Any other suggestions would be very much welcome!
