In 2018 my wife and I participated in an alpine ski tour of the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt. During the 6 days of skiing we stayed at 5 alpine huts, crossed 13 glaciers, 12 cols, summitted 2 peaks, and covered 51 miles. Between an exhausting first day and a 19-mile sixth day we experienced high alpine hut living (the huts range in elevation from 8,061 to 10,400 feet above sea level), beautiful mountain scenery, and great people. Join me as I retrace our route with photos of some of the highlights of the skiing and descriptions of the huts, the route, the conditions, and the people who joined us on this adventure. There will opportunities to hear questions from the audience, as well as demonstrations of the alpine touring and mountaineering gear necessary to undertake such a trip.
