Several large rocks hit the Promontoire hut last night, so it's closed while they try to assess the risk of any further rockfall: https://www.refugedupromontoire.com/en-direct/

In reply to James FR:

Ouf! The staff that were left in the hut were lucky!

In reply to jon:

Yep, it was especially lucky apparently that no-one was on the platform outside as that took a direct hit...

In reply to James FR:

I bivied below the hut back in July and the staff where sleeing right where that rock is on the terrace. The hut was fully booked but there were nice fat mattresses outside for that eventuality it seemed. Lucky that rockfall didn't happen on a busy night.
