Hi there
I'm not quite at your required experience level, but urgently seeking partner for the coming week.
I am in the Chamonix area from 15th - 22nd August. Looking for a partner to do some easyish Alpine peaks - F to AD grade. If this does not look likely, I could be open to some general trad. I would be up for seconding slightly harder peaks - perhaps D.

I have trad kit and alpine kit. Experience is as below:
-Trad - Have led a variety of Severe routes in South Wales, Cornwall and
North Wales, one HS route. Seconded many routes up to HVS.
-Mixed climbing - led one Grade II, and seconded many Grade IIs in Scotland
-Alps - Did a PYB alpine course in the Alps three years ago. This was before I could
lead climb though. On our final day we ascended Aigulle de Tour. In 2014, have explored some AD peaks, both unsuccessful, but learnt lots from it.
-Mountains - lots of winter and summer navigation in navigationally challenging parts of the UK.
-Altitude - have climbed at about 6000m in Pakistan - ice at 45 degrees
at the steepest I would say, but challenging with the thinner air and
Pakistani heat!
