Edges of rochefort / Grandes jorasses 4208 m-traverse

rochefort edges / Grandes jorasses 4208 m: a long journey at more than 4,000 m from col du geant to Pointe Walker. This magnificent journey travels in two "big days" with a night in a bivouac hut between the cap of rochefort and the grandes jorasses or on one of the tops. the route in snow, rock and mixed in an air atmosphere is great. It is a "great route", to be taken only when the weather conditions are stable.
