Hiya,
does anyone know what conditions are like on Mont Blanc currently? I was thinking of climbing(possibly soloing) the Three Monts route in mid to late July and have heard there is a lot more snow than normal. i live in Australia so finding information is difficult, any websites I can check? Thanks.
Cheers Boyd

Hi Boyd,

I am a journalist working for the Swiss TV Channel RTS. We are preparing a documentary film on the Mont Blanc and looking for people going up there. Are you still planning on summitting the mountain this year?

If so, would you be available for a chat over the phone?

Thanks so much,
Lisa

Hey!
I am also planning a climb this year, and am raising money for charity while doing it. I live in Zurich, but don't think my language skills are up for something like this in English, is that okay for the documentary?

I soloed 3 Monts route ~July 2 years ago. It was pretty straight forward despite some pretty crappy conditions. I'll be heading back to the Alps next month for a trip on Matterhorn, thinking about traversing from Italian to Swiss side.
