This track is half of the well known Houte Route that links Chamonix and Zermatt. It avoids the high pases usually covered with snow and glaciers. Instead it is a famous route for walking.
We planed to run it in 6 stages from Chamonix to Zermatt, but unfortunately we couldn't finish it due to illness. However we did run the first three stages:
1st stage: Chamonix-L'Arpette (Chamonix-Argentarie-Col de Balme-Le Peuty-Chalet du Glacier-Fenêtre de L'Arpette-Relaix de L'Arpette)
2nd Stage: Relaix de L'Arpette-Cabane du Mont Fort (Relaix de L'Arpette-Champex-La Garde-Sembrancher-Le Chable-Villette-Clambin-Cabane du Mont Fort)
3rd Stage: Cabane du Mont Fort-Arolla (Cabane du Mont Fort-Col de Termin-Col de Louvie-Col de Prfleuri-Col des Reux-Lac des Dix-Col de Rietmatten-Arolla.
Maybe next year I upload the second half ;)
