Trekking From Chamonix To Zermatt - Walkers Haute Route - Day 10
This day started with a big surprise! I didn't have to open my eyes, I just knew, there's a freeze outside of my sleeping bag...
Yesterday I washed my shirt and socks in the lake and left them on grass to dry, but now they were frozen and stoned!
Anyway, it wasn't any problem and I still survived... I just had to wait the opening of public toilet, to melt my stuff with hot air from hand dryer. The view from our camp was fantastic again:
We didn't expect a difficult day today. Mountain pass was just 600 meters above our camp and there was option to use cable cab on most of the descent to Zinal. Very soon we said good bye to our camp and were on the move:
Our ascent was ridiculously fast. We made just some short breaks to enjoy picturescue vistas:
And next moment we were on Corne de Sorebois at 2850 m asl:
We were sitting there almost an hour to enjoy the moment, weather, sun and life in general... It was still very early, some minutes after 10 AM and our ascent was done!
I took a little walk to find the best spots for photoshoots and this is what I got:
Soon after that we started our descent to Zinal. We had heard some rumors about different good leisure options there, so we didn't want to reach there very late in the evening. Our next stop was cable cab station and we splitted to three groups. Two group members choosed to descent by cable cab, one took this ride:
The rest of us continued by walking:
We were a bit of tired to walk for hours every day, so we made it really fast to get to camp for just lay down on the sun and do nothing... Fortunately I still took some pictures on our way:
Right after 2 PM we were already on our perfect campsite! We found it by accident as usual, right before reaching to Zinal. We had everything we needed there, including toilet, seats, tables under roof and tap water! After some shopping we made us comfortable here:
Later on the evening we even had a nice barbeque on our camp:
Life was perfect!! :)
On this night I slept as a king! I had a roof over me, because I took my place on the table under roof and I didn't have to fear any of precipitations...

Sitaks huvitav tundub see mägedes ronimine :) edu
Eks tegelikult ju ongi :)
Mulle üldse tundub, et eestlastel põhilised postituste teemad ongi looduses käimistest, nii et võib-olla õnnestub kunagi kollektiivseltki mingi lõkkeõhtu või isegi nädalalõpumatk ära teha...
