A superbly written article! Thanks and good luck with the rest of the series!
I wonder where in The European Alps he's been up to 4810m.
Not so much where as when. In 2013 Mont Blanc was measured to be 4810.02 metres. It was measured again in 2015 and found to be 4808.73 metres.
Really? It was given as 4807 when I climbed it in about 1993 and 1995. Is it really going up and down like that or is it down to sloppy measurements?
Bearing in mind it’s a snow summit, it’s likely to fluctuate.
Ah yes, I should have thought of that.
Si.
