More off a "mini" Mini Tour Du Lac I felt.

Despite not climbing that high on the ridge after crossing the lake it was still great fun and my first flight of this week long trip so quite happy. I really did try and climb up the ridge after crossing the lake but it simply wasn't working well for anyone. I was with four other wings and no one managed to climb up with 2 bombing out just below the ridge and 2 of us making it back to Doussard main landing.

As per normal the main Forclaz take off was hectic but once I turned right the climb up the ridge was easy and the transition over to The Teeth was uneventful really. Some nice climbs to be had and none of them express elevators so quite calm all round.
