Well that's sort of fun in a slightly tedious way... When did the little kiosk go in near the Tete Rouse hut? What's it for? And it is sometimes a little challenging to work out which arrow to follow when there is a plethora of choices. Good grief the level of cables is astonishing, but probably needed as per the Matterhorn Hornli
Really shocked about the extent of the fixed ropes/cables on what is actually a pretty easy route. When I did it in the early 70's the only protection was a fixed rope across the actual icy part of the Grand Couloir - and that was only really there to stop you falling further if you were hit by a falling rock! If people can't cope on such easy terrain, you have to question whether they should be there at all.
