Unsuccessful. We have stopped at the summit of Petit Mont Blanc and decided the bergschrund might be too difficult to negotiate. Probably too late in the season. Will come back...

Long route
Climbed with andrea.it. Too long route in one day, it requires perfect conditions of everything.

short time window
Ascension made in one day. Due to some job reason, we had not time enough. The conditions of the glacier were quite bad. Very hot temperature. We were stoped around 3500m. No chaces to continue.
Anyway in case of better condition and earlier start, the ascent in one day is feasible.

Route Climbed: Via Petit Mont Blanc from Rainetto Bivak Date Climbed: august 2021Exceptional condition this late in the season (mid-August 2021). No ice on the steep east face of the to the Aiguille Orientale.
This one has been a long time on my bucket list. Seemed liked a perfect start top pick up alpinism again after the Coved-19 break.
